Turns out Google really knows Um Kulthoom after all. Today is her birthday, and I can’t feel but somehow flattered that Google recognized her birthday with a doodle, it’s a reminder of an era that honored those legends and created spaces for them where they expressed their greatness.
EDIT: I’ve added the clip below of the Naseer Shamma playing Um Kulthoom’s great ‘Inta Omri’ with his Dancing-Hand technique.
