Naziha Miftah resides in Paris, but she is originally from Morocco. Naziha became know for her strong vocals where she performs covers of Fayrouz's classic songs, songs that expats love to appreciate. Naziha has performed with Marcel Khalifah (who also lives in Paris) in his Europe tours. I like her voice, it reminds of a young Salwa Qatrib, a compliment I do not take lightly.
Singing poems from the ancient Arab past as well those of well know Palestinian poet Mahmou Darwish, so you know she is no pop. The kind of music that gives you a journey of your own soul and teaches you how to truly relax. She can do it through her voice or by playing the lute, an instruments she has mastered.
Not too many Arabs at the homeland know of her, but it seems she Arabs living in Europe are familiar with her work and her talent. Ahmed Dari, a Palestinian composer and lyricist has wrote that song below for Naziha, I think since they both live in Paris, this collaboration is only natural.
