#17 - Midgardsblot Opening Ceremony (Benny Braaten and Gustav Holberg)
Manage episode 367763824 series 3329728
Benny Braaten and Gustav Holberg of Folket Bortafor Nordavinden join me in this very special interview to talk about the origins of the Midgardsblot opening ritual and what to expect from it if it's your first time going. More importantly, though, Benny and Gustav open up about what they believe makes drumming so special compared to other ways we make music, how important rhythm is to the human experience, and why it speaks so powerfully to people who get to experience such rituals and drum circles in person. If you're interested in the spiritual, social, and personal sides of what making music is all about, then this one's for you - especially if you're an aspiring musician!
