Interview with a virtuoso of the masenqo, a traditional Ethiopian one-stringed lute. [English subtitles]

https://youtu.be/-7jNjCfiyRA

Haddis Alemayehu (stage name HaddinQo) is a fellow I'm most familiar with for his masenqo cover of "Shape of You", and for that kick-ass instrumental bit near the end of the live version of Teddy Afro's "Semberé". I've always been curious about HaddinQo, his career, his background, his beliefs, et cetera, but there's almost no content about him in English or with English subtitles... Except for this, apparently!

So at least for me, this was quite a cool find.
