Is the Ethiopian Music backed by formal industry standards?

Music has always been a prominent presence in human life. Through time, it has managed to surface as a powerhouse industry across time. In Ethiopia, we have a rich tradition in music culture and it has been used to advance new ideas, preserve cultures and traditions and more.

However, is there a formal music industry? How did it surface? What are the ups and downs? Is it well supported? These are some of the questions we were hoping to answer in our 13th Issue. Enjoy!

This issue was produced in partnership with the EUNIC cluster under the Tibebe Online program.
