Impressions of Ethiopia: for Solo Violin and Electronics

This is a collection of musical vignettes by American violinist and composer Kaethe Hostetter, a veteran of Debo Band and currently part of the touring Ethiopian ensemble QwanQwa. Sourcing from her 11 years living in Addis Ababa, she transports you to the bustling streets of the East African metropolis, evoking the crackling sounds of a saxophone blaring out of a barbershop radio, a shepherd's flute melody turned dub reggae, the fervent dancing on packed dirt floors of a rural honey-wine bar, and the funky big band psychedelic sounds of Ethiopia's "Golden Era".
