The Ethiopian music is mainly different
with each of the Ethiopia’s ethnic groups that are being associated with
special sounds; some of the forms of the traditional music are strongly covered
by the folk music from elsewhere in the Horn of Africa. Although, the Ethiopian
religious music also has a past Christian element dated to Yared, who lived
during the period of Gabra Masqal. In the northeastern Ethipia, in Wollo, a
