About the Artist
Also known as 'The Star of the East', Om Kalthoum (Om Kolthoum, Om Kalthum, Um Kalthum, Om Kalsoum, Um Kaslum) is considered to be the best and most influential Arab singer who ever lived, and one of the most popular singers in the history of music. She was born in Egypt in 1908, and died there in 1975 after a very productive life in which she sang over 400 songs. Her songs are still heard with the same reverence as when she was alive. Her audience still hums along or cries in reaction to the passion she evokes and the wide range of pitch with which she sings. One reviewer mentioned that her following totals that of Elvis Presly and Maria Callas combined. Over 1 million of her albums are sold every year. Her songs were composed by the most prominent Arab composers such as Zakariyya Ahmad, Mohammad al-Qasabji, Riad el-Sounbati, Mohammad Abdul Wahab, Mohammad el-Mougi and Baligh Hamdi.
