Guebru, Emahoy Tsegue-Mariam - s/t – New LP
The second LP compendium of Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru’s early solo piano works, recorded throughout the 1960s – finally available again. Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru is a true original – her compositions and unique playing style live somewhere between Erik Satie, Debussy, liturgical music of the Coptic Ethiopian Church, and Ethiopian traditional music. It is some of the most moving piano music you will ever hear!
These original compositions, performed by Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru herself on solo piano, were originally self-released in Germany in small editions as fundraisers for orphanages, support organizations for widows of war victims, and other philanthropic causes. We are humbled and proud to present this album in collaboration with the EMAHOY TSEGE MARIAM MUSIC PUBLISHER and Foundation, and to assist in continuing her life-long mission of using music as a vessel to care for those who have been abandoned by society, or harmed by strife.
Black vinyl LP comes in black inner-sleeves and heavy cardstock jacket with color printing and gold-foil stamping, and song notes by the composer herself. Restored and remastered by Timothy Stollenwerk.
The second LP in our ongoing series of releases from Mariam - Tsege Gebru! More 1960's recordings of her truly unique solo piano performances. Mariam - Tsege Gebru is a true original. All original compositions available for the first time on vinyl beyond the original early 1960's editions, which are completely impossible to find. Old school “tip on“ cover with gold foil printing. A must have masterpiece for anyone who needs some spiritual comfort.
