TIZITA RADIO is sublime music inspired by the joy of remembering, and the feeling of longing for something that will never return, with host Rani de Leon.
“Tizita” is an Amharic word that translates to memory, longing or nostalgia, and is often compared to the blues or saudade. This show explores Tizita as heard around the world, a universal sentiment arguably at the core of what makes us human.
