Aida al sha'ir عايدة الشاعر

 



Aida Al-Sha'ir was an Egyptian singer born in Mansoura on 29 October 1940.

Raised in a family in which the interest in art and music was very high, from an early age Aida accompanied Muhammad, her older brother, to the clubs where he performed . A multi-instrumentalist and French language teacher, Muhammad supported her and encouraged her propensity towards singing by taking her to music lessons and entrusting her to composer Mahmoud Kamel who helped develop her artistic talent.

She enrolled in the American school, then moved on to the French one and began to take her first professional steps in the field of translation and teaching at a school in Dekernes , a city located 20 km east of Mansoura, therefore  in a school in Cairo.

 In Cairo she participated on Egyptian Radio in the program “Al biyano al abiad“ (the white piano), directed by Mohamed Salem, whose judges were Baligh Hamdi, Mohamed El Mougy and Riyad Al-Sunbati. Aida performed songs by Fayza Ahmed, Warda and Souad Muhammad, winning first place.

Enthusiastic about her interpretations, the musician Riyad Al-Sunbati decided to compose a series of romantic songs exclusively for her.

The real artistic turning point came after meeting the musician Ali Ismail who, in love with her voice, asked her to record some  songs with hisorchestra, the "Firqa Rida lilfunun Shabiyya" (Reda Folklore Band). These new songs will achieve great success and convince Aida to abandon her career as a teacher to dedicate herself solely to music.

In particular, the songs “Kayda al 'azal” written by Hussein Al-Sayed, and “Al Tasht qala ly” achieved overwhelming success, helping to ensure that Shadia's name began to resonate very strongly in the musical world, not only in Egypt .

Among her early fans are the writers Nagib Mahfuz and Anis Mansour along with the archaeologist Kamal el-Mallakh, all enthusiastic about her song “Kayda al 'azal”. Following this great success, her songs will be used in some films. Aida will be in great demand at parties and weddings and the best composers and musicians in the Arab world will write for her. These include Baligh Hamdi, Abdel Azim Muhammad, Sayed Makkawi, Jamal Salama, Helmy Bakr and Salah El-Sharnoubi.

She will marry the singer and composer Sayed Ismail, met through her brother Muhammad, with whom she will have an only daughter, Randa. In 1974 she was invited by Egyptian President Anwar al Sadat to sing at the wedding of her daughter Lubna. One of her last public appearances was in 1980 on the occasion of the "Randa Phone" exhibition set up by her husband in Alexandria. Having retired from her artistic life, Aida Sha'ir died on 7 March 2004, at the age of 64, following a heart attack.

 

 

 


 

 



Aida Al-Sha’ir è stata una cantante egiziana nata a Mansoura il 29 ottobre 1940.


Cresciuta in una famiglia nella quale l’interesse per l’arte e la musica era molto alto, Aida fin da piccola accompagnava Muhammad ,suo fratello maggiore, nei club presso i quali si esibiva. Polistrumentista e insegnante di lingua francese, Muhammad la sostenne e incentivò la sua propensione verso il canto portandola a lezione di musica e affidandola al compositore Mahmoud Kamel che l'aiutò ad affinare il suo talento artistico.

Iscrittasi alla scuola americana passò in seguito a quella francese e cominciò a muovere i suoi primi passi professionali nel campo della traduzione e dell’insegnamento presso una scuola di Dekernes ,città situata a 20 km a est di Mansoura, quindi presso una scuola del Cairo.

Al Cairo partecipò presso Radio Egiziana al programma “ Al biyano al abiad “ (il pianoforte bianco), diretto da Mohamed Salem, i cui giudici erano Baligh Hamdi, Mohamed El Mougy e Riyad Al-Sunbati. Aida interpretò brani di Fayza Ahmed, Warda e Souad Muhammad aggiudicandosi il primo posto.

Entusiasta delle sue interpretazioni il musicista Riyad Al-Sunbati decise di comporre una serie di brani romantici esclusivamente per lei.

La vera svolta artistica avverrà dopo l’incontro con il musicista Ali Ismail il quale, innamorato della sua sua voce, le chiese di incidere alcuni brani con la sua orchesta, la “ Firqa Rida lilfunun Shabiyya” ( Reda Folklore Band) . Queste nuove canzoni otterranno un grande successo e convinceranno Aida ad abbandonare la carriera di insegnante per dedicarsi unicamente alla musica.

In particolar modo i brani “Kayda al 'azal” scritta da Hussein Al-Sayed , e “Al Tasht qala ly “ otterranno un successo travolgente contribuendo a farsi si che il nome di Shadia cominci  a risuonare mollto forte nel mondo musicale, non solo egiziano.

Tra i suoi fan della prima ora troviamo gli scrittori Nagib Mahfuz e Anis Mansour insieme all’archeologo Kamal el-Mallakh, tutti entusiasti del suo brano “Kayda al 'azal”.

In seguito a questo grande successo, le sue canzoni verranno utilizzato in alcuni film.Aida sarà molto richiesta a feste e matrimoni e I migliori compositori e musicisti del mondo arabo scriveranno per lei . Tra questi Baligh Hamdi, Abdel Azim Muhammad , Sayed Makkawi, Jamal Salama, Helmy Bakr e Salah El-Sharnoubi.


Si sposerà con il cantante e compositore Sayed Ismail , incontrato tramite il fratello Muhammad, dal quale avrà un unica figlia, Randa.

Nel 1974 sarà invitata dal presidente egiziano Anwar al-Sadat a cantare in occasione del matrimonio della figlia Lubna. 


Una delle sue ultime apparizioni pubbliche sarà nel 1980 in occasione della mostra "Randa Phone” allestita dal marito ad Alessandria .

In 1947, at the age of 16, she responded to an advert published by director Ahmed Badrakhan looking for new faces. Thus her journey into the world of the seventh art will begin with the new name she chose herself.

Her early films, melodramas, romantic films and comedies, starring under the direction of directors such as Helmy Rafla, Fatin Abdel Wahab, Hassan Helmy and Hassan El Emam, portrayed her in roles of a cute, lively and bubbly woman.

This fact will cause her great pain, but supported by her father and her brothers, she will be able to face her difficult moment and in parallel with her activity as an actress she will continue her studies. The years between 1953 and 1961 will mark the peak of her success. Alongside her career as an actress, she will also pursue that of a singer, obtaining widespread acclaim. About her She married the legendary actor Emad Hamdy, twenty years her senior, from whom she divorced three years later. A wedding plan with the Syrian singer Farid Al Atrash will not come to fruition while her marriage to the radio engineer Fathi Aziz will end after just two years due to the latter's jealousy. Her meeting with the actor Salah Zulfikar in 1961 led Shadia to remarriage. The partnership between the two will last seven years and will bring great professional successes. They will pair up in 6 films, giving life to a famous duet that will become a classic of Egyptian cinema.

During this period she will come into contact with Sheikh Muhammad Metwalli al-Sha'rawi, popular Islamic preacher, former minister of Mamdouh Salem's government in 1976, with whom she would form a strong spiritual relationship.

Following this meeting she will begin to wear the hijab and she will decide to end her acting career to dedicate herself to charity. She will donate all the money she earned during her career as an actress and singer to charities for the care of orphaned children, stating that she made this decision without doubt or hesitation.

Fatma Kamal El Din Ahmed Shaker, conosciuta  con il nome d’arte  Shadia, è stata un attrice e cantante egiziana simbolo dell’età dell’oro del cinema egiziano e vera icona  nella regione del Medio Oriente.

Nata 8 febbraio 1931 al Cairo nel quartiere di Al Helmia Al Jadida da padre egiziano e madre di origine turca, Shadia si è dedicata alla musica già in giovane età nel corso della scuola elementare incoraggiata in questo in particolare dal padre che ha sempre  creduto fortemente nel suo talento

La prima parte della sua carriera interesserà principalmente il mondo del cinema. Nel 1947, all’età di 16 anni, risponderà ad un annuncio pubblicato dal regista Ahmed Badrakhan alla ricerca di volti nuovi . Comincerà cosi il suo viaggio all’interno del mondo della settima arte con il nuovo nome da lei stessa scelto.

I suoi primi film, melodrammi, film romantici e commedie, recitati sotto la direzione di registi quali Helmy Rafla , Fatin Abdel Wahab, Hassan Helmy e Hassan El Emam, la ritraevano in ruoli di donna carina, vivace e frizzante.
In particolare il suo lavoro con il regista Helmy Rafla le spalancherà le porte della notorietà e le permetterà di recitare accanto ai più grandi attori dell'epoca come Mohamed Fawzi , nel film “Sahiba el malalim ” nel 1949, e l’usignolo del Nilo Abd el halim Hafez in “Ma’abuda Al Jamahir”.

Agli inizi della sua carrierà si innamorerà perdutamente di un pilota di caccia che purtroppo morirà nel corso del conflitto intercorso tra Egitto ed Israele nel 1948.
Questo fatto le causerà un grande dolore, ma supportata da suo padre e dai fratelli riuscirà a affrontare il momento difficile e parallelamente alla sua attività di attrice continuerà gli studi.

Gli anni tra il 1953 e il 1961 segneranno l’apice del suo successo. Alla carriera di attrice affiancherà quella di cantante ottenendo ampio consenso . Si sposerà con il leggendario attore Emad Hamdy , di venti anni più anziano di lei, dal quale divorzierà tre anni dopo.
Un progetto di matrimonio con il cantante siriano Farid Al Atrash non andrà in porto mentre il matrimonio con l'ingegnere radiofonico Fathi Aziz finirà dopo soli due anni a causa della gelosia di quest’ultimo.

L’incontro con l’attore Salah Zulfikar nel 1961 porterà Shadia a nuove nozze. Il sodalizio tra i due durerà sette anni e frutterà grandi successi professionali. Faranno coppia in 6 film dando vita ad un famoso duetto che diverrà un classico del cinema egiziano.

Nel corso della sua carriera Shadia ha recitato in 150 film e ha registrato 500 canzoni di successo. Ha cantato molte canzoni patriottiche che sono ancora ricordate dagli egiziani di tutto il mondo. Molti critici la considerano l'artista egiziana di maggior successo di tutti i tempi e il suo Il brano "Ya Habibti Ya Masr" (Oh Egitto, amore mio) è considerata una delle migliori canzoni patriottiche di sempre.


Soprannominata “ L’idolo delle masse” , in seguito alla sua partecipazione all’omonimo film, all’inizio degli anni ‘80 si troverà ad affrontare un momento particolarmente difficile che la riavvicinerà alla religione. Si recherà in pellegrinaggio alla Mecca per l'haj.  In questo periodo  entrerà in contatto con  Sheikh Muhammad Metwalli al-Sha'rawi
, popolare predicatore islamico, già ministro del governo di Mamdouh Salem  nel 1976, con il quale stringerà un forte rapporto spirituale.
 

In seguito a questo incontro  comincerà ad indossare  l'hijab e  deciderà di porre fine alla sua carriera di attrice per dedicarsi alla beneficenza .
Donerà   tutto il denaro guadagnato durante la sua carriera di attrice e cantante a enti di beneficenza per la  cura dei bambini orfani affermando di avere preso questa decisione senza dubbi o esitazioni.

Nel 2017 sarà ricoverata al Cairo in terapia intensiva in seguito ad un grave ictus. Sebbene sembravano notarsi segnali di ripresa, la sua condizione clinica subirà un peggioramento e Shadia morirà il 28 Novembre 2017 per insufficienza respiratoria causata da una polmonite.
