Fatima is a very complex artist. She is a singer, playing several kind of reed flutes such as: hungarian flute, ney, fula flute, bansuri, bulgarian kaval and egyptian kawala. Playing professional percussion on derbuka and advanced on Tombak, bongo and cajon. Also having organising and producing skills.

“I was born in Russia in a diplomatic family, later moved to Algeria, grew up in Hungary.
I started playing the flute at the age of 12, but later my attention turned towards acting. I got a contract in a famous theatre in Hungary, but I couldn' t bare the 4 walls, so in search of wisdom I left all my schools for travelling.
In Egypt I already knew that I needed to become a professional percussionist.
I became a desciple of Khamis Henkesh a very gifted and wellknown Egyptian percussionist and learned his technics.
My obsession for flutes became stronger and stronger every year, continued my studies in Turkey, India Senegal and Gambia. I mastered myself on the Ney and still mastering Egyptian Kawala, Fulani African flute, Hungarian and Bulgarian Kaval and the Bansuri.
All are made from bamboo and very spiritual instrumets.
I love to play with all kind of musicians from Jazz to elektronic music.
A few years ago I started to practice yoga, I am now composing many healing music with reed flutes and percussion for yoga, meditation and trance dance retreat.
There is a lot to express with music, my goal is to find our very nature and real self.
I was playing with great names in showbusiness like: Okay Temiz, Ayman Mabrouk, Fathy Salama and many musicians from all over the world.
In 2011 we won 1st price in Folkbeats talent contest and an American tour.”
