Oran Etkin – Bridging Bamako and Brooklyn
Oran Etkin, a native of New York, brings together elements of modern jazz with traditional African and Israeli music and features Malian, Israeli, and American musicians. The notables are vocalist Abdoulaye Diabate, and Grammy Award-winning artists Lionel Loueke and John Benitez who are on a collection of eleven tracks that pay true testament to the essence of “kelenia,” the Bambara word for love between people who are different from each other.
