- Alemayehu Fanta, is a traditional Ethiopian singer-musician, who belongs to the Azmaris. Azmaris are comparable to the European bard or the West African griots, accompanying themselves on either a "masenqo" (one-stringed fiddle) or on the "krar" a 7 string lyre.
Here he sings a traditional song called Bale Gariwe, which is a very famous traditional song in Ethiopia.
The "masenqo" (also spelled masenko, mesenqo, mesenko, masinko, or masinqo) is a single-stringed bowed lute commonly found in the musical traditions of Ethiopia and Eritrea.
As with the "krar", this instrument is used by Ethiopian minstrels called azmaris .
Although it functions in a purely accompaniment capacity in songs, the masenqo requires considerable virtuosity, as azmaris accompany themselves while singing.
