Al Mansoori is standing out for her ability to add oriental melodies to western songs while playing the electronic drums, a modern instrument that first originated in the west.

“I love playing the drums because it allows me to express my energy and ideas. The drum is a unique and distinctive instrument that adds a lot of excitement to various songs and melodies,” said Al Mansoori, who is also passionate about playing several other musical instruments such as oxylivon, piano and flute.

“Events like the Dubai Metro Music Festival provide artists an opportunity to showcase their talent and creativity and also enhance their skillsets. The Festival is such a wonderful platform for all artists to play their music in front of huge crowds of people coming from different cultural backgrounds,” she said.

Organised by Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office (GDMO), in collaboration with the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the second edition of the Dubai Metro Music Festival is taking place from 16th-22nd March.

During the week-long celebration of global music, Dubai Metro stations serve as stages for live musical performances by local, regional and international musicians representing a range of musical genres.
