"The trumpeter also invites a singer, whom he introduces as ” a legend of Eritrean music “. This is Faytinga, a singer and activist from Asmara, performing the great “Tanafaqit”, a nostalgic song. The singer lives in exile far from her country and like him, she hopes to return one day. But ” Eritrea is in a difficult situation, having been under a dictatorship for 30 years […] People cannot speak freely. It is one of the poorest countries in the world. So it’s a bit of hope explains Hermon Mehari. Given the war currently ravaging the country, particularly the Tigray region, the album Asmara is a declaration of love to Eritrea, full of hope for the future of its people."
