Thank you for this one! I`ve been following Ruben for a while now and I always enjoy learning more about his thoughts and experiences. Greetings to you from Germany!
Nice interview! It was informative to hear about bluegrass. I never heard this word, just called it for "American music" or "banjo chill" :D I like how Ruben can name things, always very prompt: I would have never admit the shame about our Eurovision singers :D hahah but 3 of them, were really good - Bayer Friderika, Rúzsa Magdi and Wolf Kati (perhaps Delhus Gjon också)
Really enjoyed this interview and look forward to a second installment. The concept of genre is interesting (meriting further discussion) as it may serve to inhibit an individual's experience (e.g., in a farmer's market or museum) because of a certain bias for one form of musical expression over another. Would it be necessary to enhance the listening abilities of visitors to a farmer's market/museum to negate the bias genre may have on an individual's receptiveness to knowledge transfer?
Oh man we could really get into the weeds here! Something important about genre to keep in mind is it's so much more than just the music itself. Genre also indicates how the music is experienced, which isn't talked about enough in casual conversation about the merits of genre. Looking forward to having this conversation more in the future!
