It is with great sadness that we heard the news about Gash Ayele Mamo. He has been a great musician and a gentle person that we had the honor to have worked with on our Afropentatonism album.

Here, we would like to share a personal note from Alhousseini Anivolla on their common musical memories:

"When we started the Afropentatonism project in 2018, Girum invited Ayele to take part. I remember well the evening at the Italian cultural center in Addis Ababa when we all gathered for the first concert together.

He didn't speak much, the more overwhelming was his music, his solo, with which he enriched the song "Tamadrite Nakal"...

A beautiful live performance of the "Queen of Mbira" Stella Chiweshe recorded at Club Gretchen by Berta.Berlin.

Enjoy!
