A music show focusing on Tizita, one of the major musical scales of ethiopia. The show is hosted by me and henok featuring Abraham Tesfaye.

Tizita
Formerly was known as wollo Kiñit because of its use by the Azmaris around this area. The name is given because of the popular Amharic song sung in this Kiñit. This pentatonic scale has two varieties Major and minor (Traditionally known as Full Tizita and Half Tizita). As I tried to explain earlier (even though the traditional instruments do not have perfect pitch value): I will use Latin (European) music notes for the scale (Kiñit ) analysis by using DO ( Middle C) as the starting point Tizita major or Full

Tizita minor (Half tizita)
You can easily listen both in different traditional and popular songs e.g. Mahamud Ahmed Tizita song. Tizita major or major pentatonic scale is common and widely used in traditional, pop, jazz and even classical music through out the world.

Belay T. Gebru founded Hope for the Fatherless in 2012. The organization was born out of his desire to counter the current orphan crisis facing his homeland of Ethiopia. HFTF operates two small group homes from which children are able to be placed into forever families through domestic adoption. Belay’s own story is one of tremendous tragedy and redemption, both shaping much of his ministry to the fatherless of Ethiopia. He is recently married to Koki and serves as the executive director of Hope for the Fatherless.
