MY BIRTHSONG
SAMIRA ALY
CELLIST • COMPOSER • PRODUCER
My passion for cello began at the age of five. After watching a performance at the Cairo opera house I told my mother that I wanted to play "that one". Back in Germany I got my first cello and lessons and so the life long journey began...
​
My passion for composing began in Berlin with arranging covers for my own ensembles, and performances with loop station accompaniment. I've had the opportunity to write for recordings and shows, and love composing cello and string lines for singer songwriters.
During the pandemic I composed, recorded and produced my first album with children songs. The second album with film music followed a year later.

MUSIC MEDITATION
Since the fall of 2022 I've been performing weekly musical meditations with my electric cello, live on social media. Initially an experiment to challenge myself to get out of my comfort zone, these improvisations quickly turned into a fun routine and the feedback from my audience was overwhelming.
This music should inspire you to take a few minutes of your day to relax, refresh and reconnect with yourself.
Next I will perform these improvised pieces for a live audience. If you're interested in the live experience, please subscribe to my Newsletter to not miss a date. You will receive one meditation as mp3 download for free!
You can also enjoy the experience over at my Youtube channel.
MY BIRTHSONG
A SONG FOR LIFE
My BIRTHSONG is a unique song I will compose for your child before or after the baby's birth. As you play the melody it strengthens the bond between you and your baby. It will comfort and sooth the child. This song will connects you with your loved one through the power of music.
The idea of My BIRTHSONG began to take form when my nephew was born 13 years ago. I felt a deep need to compose a melody for him but was in the midst of preparing for my final recital... More than a decade later I finally composed a song for him with beautiful cello lines. From now on his personal song will accompany him on his way.
I love to compose cello melodies for babies, children and any other person.
If you would like to give MY BIRTHSONG to a loved one, please contact me and we will discuss further details.

MY ALBUMS
For my latest work "String Theory Vol.1" I composed and recorded the cello lines and collaborated together with film composer Sebastian Pecznik who produced and curated the album published by Warner Chappell Production Music.
In the winter of 2020/21 I composed my first album which included both the composition and album production of ten children songs for the project Zirkus Palope.
