"Ibrahim Maalouf presents Kalthoum, a tribute tour celebrating the 10th anniversary of the album of the same name. After a triumphant world tour in 2016, Kalthoum returns for an exclusive series of 30 concerts in France and Europe.

 

The gold-certified album is an ambitious reinterpretation of one of the most iconic masterpieces of the Egyptian diva: "Alf Leila Wa Leila" (One Thousand and One Nights). Surrounded by a virtuosic jazz quintet, Ibrahim reinterprets this mythical work, imbuing it with depth and modernity, infused with his own artistic sensibility.

 

With Kalthoum, Ibrahim not only honored a musical icon but also a major feminist and political figure, whose legacy continues to resonate today.

 

Kalthoumis a celebration of women who have shaped history. I wanted to pay tribute to a voice that rocked my childhood and remains a monument for the Arab people.” – Ibrahim Maalouf."
