Majida El Roumi

Majida El Roumi strikes me as far more than a regional star. A Lebanese soprano trained at the Lebanese University, she sings, composes and acts, and even served as a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, which tells you she used her voice for something beyond charts. The honors she has gathered, from France's Order of Arts and Letters to Lebanon's Cedar and honorary doctorates, signal an artist treated as a cultural institution. What moves me is the context: she sang through a region scarred by conflict and chose to be a voice for unity. I would rather remember her as a singer of peace than simply a diva.
