Скачать или смотреть Coming Home, with Nebyu Yohannes & Feven Kidane | RCTV 012

Nebyu Yohannes and Feven Kidane talk about traveling to Africa in recent months and about the music they played during their travels. They went first to South Africa and then to Ethiopia, where for six weeks they "came home" to cultural connections both new and from family ties. Nebyu is a trombonist and singer-songwriter, as well as one of my earliest friends in music; we went to high school together. His solo project is called nebyoha. Feven plays both trumpet and electric bass regularly around the scene and is a more recent friend of mine. Together, Nebyu and Feven have the duo project rebsha, and about a week ago they co-led a larger ensemble at the Fox Cabaret for Infidels Jazz, playing Ethiopian music.
