Malika Bellaribi , Mezzo-Soprano - Regard de Femme

Presented as VOIX EN DEVELOPPEMENT. In her recital Regard de Femme, mezzo-soprano Malika Bellaribi gives voice to the great heroines of opera and brings out the great human emotions.

Endowed with the rare timbre of a broad mezzo-soprano, and a voice that is at once full, warm and deeply expressive, Malika Bellaribi approaches these works with the freedom of an artist who has known them for many years. Embodied, passionate and devoted to the truth of feeling, she sings with her heart.

Accompanied by concert pianist Haruka Egawa, the singer brings to life the many faces of the operatic repertoire: the passionate impetus of Carmen, the sensuality of Dalila, the wounded nobility of the Countess, the poetry of Sapho, or the moving simplicity of Lascia ch'io pianga.

Open to the wider world, she includes other musical colours in her programme, weaving a natural bridge between cultures. Her performance of a Spanish song by Manuel de Falla and of the traditional Arabic song Lama Bada Yatathanna conveys the strength and universality of feeling.

Regard de Femme, the title of her new album, is the culmination of her vocal, human, lyrical and artistic journey. Accordingly, the artist brings together key works from her repertoire, enriched by her experience as much as by her emotions. The release coincides with that of the film Malika by Mounia Meddour, in cinemas on 18 November 2026, inspired by her story. Malika Bellaribi takes a free view of the great female figures of opera who express the impulses, fragilities and aspirations of the human soul. Her voice conveys what drives them and what unites us: love, desire, pain, hope and the freedom to be oneself.

PROGRAMME: to be announced.
