Franco-Algerian singer, cellist and songwriter Nesrine is a storyteller, a “Scheherazade”, for our times. And her album “Kan Ya Makan” – the Arabic for “once upon a time” – has something of the aura of a modern “Tales from the Arabian Nights”. The Times newspaper (UK) has called Nesrine “an incandescent, multilingual talent”, Rolling Stone Magazine is fascinated by her “musical world without borders”. Her songs in Arabic, French and English have the character of a personal biography, encompassing both Algeria, the country in which her family originated, and her current home town, Paris. With an impressive classical career that began in the East-Western Divan Orchestra, among others, she has successfully established herself as a solo artist. “Kan Ya Makan” aims to reflect her personal history and relationships, singing in two languages in one song for the first time. Her creative process is intuitive and sensual, and together with her producers she has distilled her ideas into compact formats. The album conveys not only her personal experiences, but also her view of the world, portraying migration as enriching and encouraging a broadening of perspectives. In the title track, she embodies the themes of love, art and beauty.
