In a Room

What the critics say:

“One of the rare non-African musicians who has taken an African instrument and made it his own, by learning the traditional songs, then admitting who he is and moving on.” – Cliff Furnald, Rootsworld

“…attention to detail and beauty of delivery…this is a highly recommended recording.” – Canadian Folk Music Bulletin

“The players are excellent and Janke’s compositions are engaging. What’s most attractive about in a room is its mood: it’s joyful.” – EYE Magazine
