Nai Barghouti: 'Palestine is in my roots; it's my identity, it's who I am'

“No matter what I do, even if I’m singing a love song, Palestine is always in the roots of anything I do and that’s just the way it is.”

As she prepares for her UK tour, The New Arab meets award-winning Palestinian classical singer, composer and flutist Nai Barghouti to talk about making music during the Gaza genocide, why Palestine is a core theme in her art, and her reason for veering towards singing Arabic in her Palestinian accent.
