In the cemetery of Trinity Cathedral in Arat Kilo area, which are buried some of the heroes of the resistance against Italian invasion, there is also buried Gessese Tilahun. Singer is in some way, also a hero to the Ethiopians. His funeral, in 2009, became one of the most massive popular demonstrations in recent years in Addis Ababa. Tilahum was one of the greatest exponents of the musical renaissance of the 60's, of what later would result in the Ethio Jazz. Certainly one of the most popular and beloved, not only for his music also campaigns in the 70 developing and 80 against famine in the country.
