"… The most interesting performer
of the evening was Maryem Tollar… With her marvelous alto voice,
tuned to the quarter tones of her native Arabic, coupled with her
striking composure…" "For a moment I felt as though Umm
Kalthum, perhaps the greatest voice the Arab world ever produced,
had returned to life…" "…(a) gifted vocalist with the
ability to effortlessly wrap her voice around…complex, sinuous
melodies" "The lyrics are direct, the music
is exotic but never out of reach- and its underlying message champions
diversity with more than just proselytizing interludes" "There are not enough superlatives
that I can use to describe Maryem's artistry" "Music without borders or stereotypes." "… à la fois actuelle
et intemporelle, la musique de Maryem Tollar et Mernie! intègre
ces influences en tout organique et résolument original,
qui solicite le corps autant que l'esprit" "Maryem's voice is indescribable.
It manages to be ground breaking and original while having clear
and profound cultural and historical roots." |
