"I love azmaris. Where was this? Their hair, dresses and circular dance reminds me of Tigrigna culture, but they are singing in Amharic. I'm a little confused." -staplesRus

"The language is Amharic. The dress is Amhara, the hair styles is Amhara and the dance is Amhara. I think you think Teddy Afro and GiGi represent Amhara Music. They are new age musicians, where as this is Amhara Music of the Amhara and cultural clothing. Gonder, Gojjam and Wello." -bolekid

"These beautiful people are from a place called Tleaje. Telaje is a place located between Amdework, Seqota and Samre. They speak three languages: Amharic, Agewgna and Tirigna." -fasika2

"This is typical of Amharic in Gondar and Wollo areas. Many mistakingly think amharic songs are only modern day Tedy and Aster (pop mixed musics)." -Vjeya
"Amharic ...is a Semitic language spoken in North Central Ethiopia by the Amhara. It is the second most spoken Semitic language in the world, after Arabic, and the "official working" language of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and thus has official status and use nationwide."

Also, here's an excerpt from a Florida State University educational website on Ethiopia:
"The geography and demography of Ethiopia, with emphasis on the Amharic people:
Ethiopia is located in an area known as the "East Horn" of Africa. When you look at a map of the African continent you will clearly see how the region bordering on the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden projects eastward like a horn. Although not at the tip of the horn, Ethiopia constitutes a part of that peninsula. This location in northeastern Africa is important to an understanding of Ethiopia's musical and cultural history, because for milennia the country has been a crossroads between West Asia (i.e., the Middle East) and the rest of Africa. Cynthia Tse Kimberlin (1980:233) calls it "a Middle Eastern country in an African setting."
Over one hundred ethnic groups constitute the population of Ethiopia, of which the Amharic people are the majority (ca. 35 percent of the population). A traditional professional musician is called azmari in Amharic, originally meaning "one who praises" and today meaning "one who criticizes" (ibid.:234). Only men become azmari, and the profession is considered extremely low class, the same as illiterates, blacksmiths, carpenters, and servants (ibid.:235). Nevertheless, azmari make good money by playing for weddings, parties, and other entertainment events. Two other important ethnic groups in Ethiopia are the Tigre and the Dorze, and some of their music is heard in this lesson, in addition to Amharic music."
