Nesrine
Cello and vocals
Nesrine is an extremely versatile singer and cellist. A true musician of today, she combines influences from various genres including pop, rock, minimalism, and North African music. Originally educated as a classical cellist, she has played in Daniel Barenboim’s East Western Divan Orchestra and in Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana conducted by Lorin Maazel, but increasingly she began to explore other musical worlds. Nesrine can be described as a cultural allegory between the East and the West. She sings poetic texts in Arabian, English, and French. In 2018 she released her album Ahlam, which was received with great enthusiasm by international media. She has toured across Europe and has performed in venues such as the Berliner Philharmonie. She made her Cello Biënnale debut at the very first edition of CELLOFEST and performed with the Metropole Orchestra at the Biënnale 2022.
