The meditation centre Vækstcenteret, at which I live built a new building in 2012. We decided this building could be used for event reaching out as a contrast to the centre itself, which has quiet contemplation at its core. I thus decided to create a concert series drawing on all my contacts of wonderful musicians from around the world. The concert series is called Verdensmusik i Nørre Snede (World music in Nørre Snede [name of the small town] – here I mean world music in the sense of the word: Music from the world rather than the genre that the word “world music” has become. It is wonderful to share the love of music – all kinds of music from around the world with the locals in my small town. We have so far had these concerts:
