A La Française

Hiba Tawaji and Ibrahim Maalouf come together on their first collaborative album, À La Française, a heartfelt tribute to French repertoire. Joined by the French Republican Guard Orchestra and a jazz quintet, they move through classical, jazz and Eastern influences with real elegance and ease.

This is a personal record as much as a musical one, shaped by their connection as a couple and their shared artistic language. Songs including La Bohème, La Javanaise and Que je t'aime are treated with clear respect, while opening into sweeping, cinematic new arrangements.

Hiba Tawaji's voice brings power, sensitivity and emotional depth, while Ibrahim Maalouf's arrangements add orchestral scale, jazz freedom and subtle Eastern colour.
