Youmna Saba
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Youmna Saba (Beirut, 1984) is a musician, composer, and musicologist. She holds a Master’s degree in musicology from Antonine University, Lebanon.
Her current research focuses on the relationship between electroacoustic music and the Arabic language in its sung form, as well as instrument and space resonances. These explorations manifest across her solo projects, collaborations, sound installations, and innovative experiments with digitally-augmented versions of her instrument, the oud.
Her fifth solo album, Wishah (2023), marks a transformative point in her career. Released by the UK-based label Touch, the album delves into the acoustic and emotional possibilities of a digitally-extended oud, a device developed as part of her research project, Taïma’. Wishah was conceived as a five-stage suite, blending voice, electronics, and oud to evoke themes of memory and transformation.
