Great artistic diversity characterizes the musical work of the Egyptian soprano with the incredibly versatile and nuanced voice Fatma Said. She has been delighting audiences for years with classical music as well as Broadway songs and jazz and music from her homeland.
The passionate lieder singer and portrait artist of the Wiener Konzerthaus will also showcase her multifaceted talents on this evening in the 2023/24 season, accompanied on the piano by the multi-award-winning accompanist Joseph Middleton. In addition to Mozart, Schubert and Schumann, she will be singing Spanish and Arabic songs from her 2020 debut album »El Nour« (»The Light«). Thematically, everything revolves around nocturnal moods and love affairs.
»When I sing these songs«, says Fatma Said about her album »El Nour«, »it's important for me to burn for each of them, to love every note I sing. I hope you will hear this [...] and fall in love with this music as much as I have.« That is guaranteed to happen this evening!
