Volksmusik Essentials

Volksmusik Essentials

While many of its most beloved performers still regale audiences with old melodies and traditional costumes, Alpine folk isn't all alpenhorns and yodeling. Contemporary Volksmusik is more about mixing oompah grooves with up-to-the-minute pop songwriting, meaning there's room in the genre for both the rich schlager baritone of German institution Heino and the remix-ready folk-hop attitude of voXXclub. So come prepared to spit a little freestyle (and maybe even yodel) over your best Bavarian dance moves.
