Impressions of Ethiopia New York Performances

At Roulette, American violinist and composer Kaethe Hostetter brings *Impressions of Ethiopia* to the stage in an album-release set shaped by eleven years living in Addis Ababa. The music is built from short classical vignettes that translate everyday sound into composed detail, moving between city streets and rural environments, from a shopfront saxophone line to the quieter edges of travel. While not billed as an NYC premiere, the program functions as a document of long-term listening rather than tourism. Its restraint is the point, letting place register through form.
