Since my childhood, I used to listen to these Divas, who to me were "The Goddesses of Music", each one of them singing in different styles. With time, and after I studied music and theatre and focused on Oriental singing and the Opera, I found out that I could sing their songs but in my own style. I am blessed with a voice that can sing several genres and move smoothly from the popular to the classical.
I spent more than 15 years studying Oriental and Western music, from the musical theory to the applied music. I studied in depth the lives, the styles, and the performance techniques of these Divas. In addition, I learnt to play some musical some instruments that expanded my musical energies. Umm Kulthum especially was a great symbol since my childhood. We all learned from her and were influenced by her wonderful methods. As for Piaf, I previously presented her songs in Arabic and French, specifically on the occasion of the centenary of her birth. I sang 15 songs in the French Bobeno Theater in which she sang for the last time. Sosa, I loved her songs and her voice always cheers me up; I will also present it in Arabic and Spanish. I am also passionate for the work of Fayrouz, Asmahan and others; I am working on translating beautiful poetry and songs burdened with sublime meanings and magical metaphors, I want to convey beauty in poetry and songs to people so that it becomes accessible to everyone. My experience in theater and acting also made me dive into the drama of the performance of "Divas" - I managed to reach their characters through their voices, but adapted it to my style.
Singing and music in general give noble meaning of my life, heal me and embrace me, give tangible dimensions to my soul in its solutions in the present and in its future quests. With it I grew up, learned, danced and cried and in it I shed all my tears of joy and sorrow. With it I learned that any simple act in life requires passion and persistence, love and sincerity. And with it, I learned to give without limits.
