Fatoumata Diawara to Perform at Royal Opera House Muscat on Feb 9-10th

Fatoumata Diawara, known as the Star of Africa, will perform at the Royal Opera House Muscat on February 9th-10th.

The Malian singer, songwriter, guitarist, actress, and activist is hailed as a visionary musician and voice for unity and hope. 

Diawara embraces both modernity and tradition, as she dresses with originality and brings the traditional elements of her heritage to life for her stage performances.

She recorded with Bobby Womack and Herbie Hancock, played Glastonbury and other major festivals, and toured with the Cuban jazz pianist Roberto Fonseca.

The multiple Grammy Award nominee sings mostly in her native Bambara and touches on topics of migration, lost childhoods, African identity, women's rights, and motherhood. 

She also signs precious manuscripts from Timbuktu, which she brings to warm, and vibrant life on tunes such as Kalan, and One Day.
