Croon to the Lady of Arab’s music at Riyadh Season

When Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin heard Umm Kulthum’s voice in Marrakech in 1970, he was “driven to distraction.” Umm Kulthum, the legendary Egyptian diva with a voice adored by many around the world today, performed powerful, political music over a 60-year career. The singer lives in the hearts of her followers, and her enchanting voice is still felt in their ears. Her voice and herself possessed great power. The Riyadh Season 2021 has set aside a particular area for you to enjoy a special event of remembering and reminiscing Umm Kulthum.

Experience the Immortal Umm Kulthum

This Riyadh Season will present you with an exclusive Umm Kulthum music experience as well as a chance to relive her era. Umm Kulthum is claimed never to sing a line the same way twice. Even after all these years, Umm Kulthum’s voice continues to live on in the hearts of her followers, delighting fans of original art with melodies that modern music techniques and new singing trends like auto-tuning could not erase from memory. 

She was more than a musician at her time; she was a global phenomenon. She was a symbol of authentic Arab and Egyptian culture as well as pan-Arab unity. Umm Kulthum presented two popular images: a refined woman who could educate the masses and a peasant daughter who embodied working-class’ suffering.
