"This little girl started playing the qanun at the age of five. She loves the feel of her fingers flicking across the strings of the instrument. She was born into a family of music lovers. Her father plays the oud and teaches at the national conservatory in Gaza. “I want to become an artist, to roam the world and spread peace with my music,” she says. “Music is a universal language. My mom created a YouTube channel with videos of me playing and singing. I feel excited when I receive new followers. Don’t forget to subscribe!”"
