Lila Borsali : “Ramadan stirs on me a soft tide of remembrance “

In an Interview with Horizons :

Lila Borsali carries the arabo-andalusian tradition with quiet grace, her voice as pure as it is evocative, preserving a heritage while lending it a tender, personal hue.

For her, Ramadan is not merely a time, but a feeling one that gently shapes her art. Her performances turn towards madihs, where devotion meets melody, and each note seems to echo both history and faith.

The month of Ramadan stirs in her a soft tide of remembrance: childhood evenings, familial warmth, and sacred songs lingering in the air. These are not just memories, but living fragments of identity, deeply rooted and dearly held.

On stage, such emotions need no invitation they simply unfold, creating a quiet yet profound communion with her audience.

And beyond the music, Ramadan refines the soul, heightening one’s awareness of others. It is, as she suggests, a sensibility that ought not to fade with the passing of the month, but rather linger like a beautiful refrain throughout the year.
