Mulatu, on his first international release, bears witness to an extraordinarily rich career, that has him hailed as the father of Ethio-jazz. From his musical studies at Trinity College London and Berklee College of Music, through groundbreaking recordings for the legendary Amha label in Addis Ababa's golden age, to his contribution to a recent Jim Jarmush film, his adoption by the musical youth of Europe and the States and sampling by hip hop royalty, Astatke has a unique musical history. His new album, Sketches of Ethiopia, brings to mind the great arrangements of Gil Evans and late Ellingtonian tone poems and is an homage to the rhythms and dances of Mulatu's homeland that still provide the engine for his music. It's also evidence that the grand old man of Ethio-jazz is not standing still. Still finding new ways to express his music, he's brought together a top team of the UK's golden generation of young improvising talent, some of the finest new Ethiopian voices and the unique vocal talents of Malian diva Fatoumata Diawara to create the strongest album of his late flowering. |
