" ... As well as with this recording of the Ethiopian singer and storyteller Seleshe Demassae, who accompanies himself on the thousands of years old krar, a beautiful six-stringed lyre. The songs mirror a multitude of Ethipian traditions, for example the story of Azmari, the troubadour. On some pieces, he is accompanied by the percussionist Souleyman Touré from the Ivory Coast. The two met at a concert in February 1993 for the first time, and went directly to the studio afterwards to record this magical CD."
