Malika Zarra
About
Moroccan/French vocalist and composer Malika Zarra is a multi-cultural shape-shifter, an enchantress who leaps subtly and powerfully between languages and traditions. Singing in Arabic, Berber, French and English.
This exotically beautiful mezzo-soprano was recently heralded by CNN International as a “jewel,” who “redefines the word fusion.”
Now, Moroccan vocalist Malika Zarra is arriving at this crossroads from the opposite direction, infusing the music of her native culture with jazz.
-Phil Freeman / GLOBAL RHYTHM
Employing all the flavors of her native continent. Zarra and her ensemble deliver a world music album of soothing and sultry rhythms buoyed by modal, Eastern grooves.
