NYC-based violinist/composer Kaethe Hostetter presents "Impressions of Ethopia”, a collection of musical vignettes sourcing from her 11 years living in Addis Ababa. Kaethe 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 funky 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.

With an opening set by local favorites O Ksenos, playing Greek traditional dances/folk songs and Rembetika.
