Nova Emad is an Iraqi singer who seized the global podium with her voice. She commands her steadfast audience with her artistic abilities and mesmerizing vocals. Daughter of legendary Iraqi vocalist Seta Hagopian, she has adopted her mother's 'Warm voice of Iraq' inscription. Nova enjoyed a privilege of being trained by her mother at a very young age to perform songs of the legends of the 'golden age' such as Abdel Halim Hafez, Fairuz, and Oum Kalthoum. Nova Emad speaks with the same soft, sensual cadences she uses when she sings — that graceful blend of sun, elegance, and rhythm that turns the familiar into something exotic and the exotic into something intimate.
