Maya Youssef

Maya Youssef is a globally renowned, award-winning qanun player and composer whose work explores the emotional and healing qualities of music. Her compositions are rooted in the Arabic Classical tradition and forge pathways into Jazz, Western Classical and Latin styles. Songlines presented her with Best Newcomer Award in 2018 and this year she released her second album Finding Home which has been followed by a UK tour combined with refugee community workshops. I was able to speak to her before everything was released. During this interview Maya was at her home in West London. Together we discussed Arabic modes, storytelling and finding home.
