Known as the father of Ethio-jazz, composer and multi-instrumentalist Mulatu Astatke rose to international fame in the 1970s and 1980s with his unique mix of American jazz and Ethiopian music, drawing comparisons to jazz giants Duke Ellington and John Coltrane. Forced off the road for a time due to the political situation in his homeland, he came roaring back in the 1990s, recording and touring as never before.
Astatke’s music begins and ends with improvisation and is the product of fearless experimentation. Experience the sounds, rhythms, and textures of this pioneer of Ethiopian jazz in The Temple of Dendur in The Sackler Wing in a performance recorded on September 9, 2016, that "JazzTimes" called “a spirited and entrancing set that spanned his career and spotlighted his gift for shifting fluidly between intricate, sinuous melodies and airy, atmospheric grooves.”
Presented in collaboration with World Music Institute.

@MulatuAstatke-xr7xx Yes I know your wonderful music since I visited Ethiopia in 2001 .
His music is a mode of transportation to an unknown destination. You might be headed to Addis.... you might be headed to a spy bar in Egypt.... who knows?

Naise Sache 👍
Masterful
I'm really enjoying the first number, "The Dewel". It's brilliant, but there needs to be a little more mic on the trumpet. When it gets drowned out by the sax, that's too quiet!
Tracklist anyone?
interesting !
I've rarely heard a trumpet played with such alternate fingerings, and with the slide to boot! 25:30
cool.
This feels like I'm listening to a new set of tunes. For whatever reason, we don't know, the sound guy decided to glorify the sax and hide the trumpet. Because of that, we're forced to listen to less trumpet and more of the sax harmony. Yekermo Sew sounds a completely different tune.
La Creta!
It's really a shame just how quiet the trumpet is in the mix
Хороший джаз
Hey it’s very good and nice Tanks. Eth !
