Legendary singer / instrumentalist Asnakech Worku's album <i>Asnakech</i> has been remastered and made available outside Ethiopia for the first time. Available here on CD and Standard Black Double LP.

There is perhaps no woman more cherished in modern Ethiopian history than Asnakech Worku. As a musician, actress, dancer and cultural icon, Asnakech inspired and challenged society for decades, until her death in 2011. Asnakech was an internationally-celebrated performer of Ethiopia’s ancient harp, the krar, making her one of the most visible female musicians of the 20th century. All this while leaving controversy, broken hearts and a changed cultural landscape in her wake. Here we have her at her mid-1970s prime and backed by Hailu Mergia.
