What thnicype of music is Ethnic music?

"Ethnic" music is any music which comes from the cultural tradition of any ethnicity. For example, gypsy music is ethnic music. Klesmer music is ethnic music from Jewish culture. 'Ethnic" music is most likely an American term, and therefore rarely refers to Anglo folk traditions, though Anglo-folk traditional music fits perfectly the description of ethnic music. The reason for this is that we tend to use the word "ethnic" to describe things from a culture foreign to our own. We are all indeed descended from one or many ethnicities.

Then again, I could be completely wrong. But that is how I see things from where I sit.
