MISSISSIPPI RECORDS Souvenirs Lp Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru
Souvenirs is the first sung album by the beloved Ethiopian nun, composer and pianist Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru. These are deeply moving cassette recordings, made in the midst of political upheaval. These are songs of wisdom, loss, grief and exile, sung directly into a boombox and accompanied by Emahoy's incomparable piano. Although written and recorded while still living in her family home in Addis Ababa, Emahoy sings of the grief of being far from home, a reflection on the 1974 revolution and the Red Terror in Ethiopia, and a foreboding of her future exile in Jerusalem.
