Explore Music began out of the realization that diverse music and cultures are vastly underrepresented or dismissed in most of Western culture. These videos are meant to be a brief overview of important pieces in a country or cultures' musical history. They also aim to educate and relate music from around the world to Western music theory in a way that can be understood. The goal of Explore Music is to create a learning atmosphere of music from around the world, and possibly strike interest in users to research, discover, and experience it themselves.
