Hiba Tawaji to Perform Live at Cairo Opera House on June 16

Lebanese soprano Hiba Tawaji will perform live at Cairo Opera House's Main Hall, in Zamalek district, Egypt, on Friday, June 16.

She is set to present several of her popular and latest songs.

The concert marks Tawaji's first time performing in the country after an absence of nearly three years.

Tawaji, born on December 10, 1987, established herself in the Lebanese and Arab music scene as a major artist recognized for her vocal skills. She has a 4-octave vocal range.

She started her career playing the main female role in well-known Rahbani musicals. She also participated in the fourth season of France's version of "The Voice", in which she was coached by Mika and reached the semi-finals.

In 2016, Tawaji joined the cast of Notre-Dame de Paris as Esmeralda in the revival of the musical. She has since toured with the cast and performed internationally.

Tawaji also presented four albums in Arabic produced by Rahbani, and numerous projects on the Lebanese and Arab levels, including in Egypt, Tunisia, and Saudi Arabia, where she was the first-ever woman to sing on stage following an easing of restrictions on women's rights.
