K8A’s Impressions of Ethiopa: for violin and electronics
This is a collection of musical vignettes by American violinist and composer Kaethe Hostetter. 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 big band psychedelic sounds of Ethiopia's "Golden Era".
The solo multimedia project uses electronics and loops, storytelling, video projection, to share a personal journey and be a door to a world that is now undergoing serious ethnic conflict.
