Afropentatonism

This is a musical artistic challenge by two world-renowned musicians: desert bluesman Alhousseini Anivolla from Niger and jazz guitarist Girum Mezmer from Addis Ababa. After years of international touring, these musicians created this project together to show the potential of music in a changing world! Afropentatonism is a musical journey on the pentatonic scale, guided by the desert blues of Anivolla and the ethiojazz of Mezmur. A meeting of artists from different cultural backgrounds. Afropentatonism is a long-term project that is becoming a symbol of the networking of cultural creators on the African continent. Afropentatonism is an ongoing pan-African meeting that offers a continuous platform for creation. It showcases the enormous potential and diversity of African music, rhythm, poetry and art. Bringing Afropentatonism to any african country is an invitation for musicians to join the project and move forward with new and surprising melodies and rhythms.
