Abatte Barihun
Abate Berihun ((ヘブライ語:אבטה בריהון), born 1967) is an Israeli jazz saxophonist and composer. His sound is reminiscent of John Coltrane's, who has highly influenced Berihun.〔〔〔〔
== Early life and career (1967–1999) ==
Barihun was born in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia. His house resided next to the music school of Addis Ababa University, as well as a nearby military base. Young Barihun fell for the march sound of the saxophones and other wind instruments emerging from the neighbouring military brass band. He got a saxophone and joined the music school, where he was exposed to Western Jazz albums of Charlie Parker and others.〔Barry Davis, (''Ras Jazz'' ), ''The Jerusalem Post'', 1 August 2002〕
By the age of 16, Barihun joined the Ethiopian Military band, with which he toured through Ethiopia and the Eastern Bloc. Mengistu Haile Mariam once sent him to play at Kim Il-sung's birthday in North Korea.〔Interview with Moshe Bar-Yuda, 30 March 2009.〕 This period in his life came to an abrupt end six years later, when the band's bus was ambushed by EPRDF forces, rebelling against Mengistu's Marxist dictatorship. Most band members were killed in the prolonged attack, and Barihun was wounded by two bullets.〔Ben Shalev, (Abatte comes back home ), ''Haaretz'' 16 May 2006 (Hebrew)〕
For eight years Barihun kept playing every night at the Hilton and Sheraton hotels of Addis Ababa.〔 He also played in the Ethiopian National Theater and toured with Mahmoud Ahmed.〔 At the age of 21 he established his own Jazz band, with which he toured Europe three times a year. His last European tour ended merely three weeks before his aliyah to Israel.〔
