“Ethno helped me realize my true potential as a musician and taught me to be limitless.”
“Ethno is a musical teaching-learning tool that allows cultural experiences in a respectful and egalitarian way.”
“I can’t find enough words to describe Ethno. It’s one of the best things that ever happened to me. For one week I’m taken to a charming place of smiles, singing, dancing, and friendship, a musical wonderland! You can’t imagine the Ethno feeling unless you experience it yourself.”
“Ethno is more than a mental or intellectual understanding, it is an understanding by heart, feelings and friendship. A life changing experience!”
“I love going to Ethno because there’s so many different cultures and It’s awesome to be able to use music as the language to connect to each other. I especially really value the friendships that have come out of going to Ethno.”
“Projects like Ethno are creating tomorrow’s societies.”
“Ethno is about more than just sharing folk music. It’s about connecting diverse cultures and opinions under the shared love of music and breaking down the walls of prejudice to help understand others. It is a one of a kind experience for any musician and has changed my outlook both musically and spiritually.”
“Friendship, learning about other cultures, hearing new instruments, dancing crazy dances and to laugh and laugh and enjoy all night long, now that’s Ethno!”
“When we talk at work about our projects we tend to say that Ethno is our best proof that music can bring peace to earth… It’s really the encounter that’s important – between different nationalities, different music, different cultures, to promote understanding – the equivalence between different countries and different people – to an extent, it may also be a part of the work for democracy.”
“All the Ethnos are different, but the Spirit is the same.”
