What does it take to blend opera and pop, tradition and innovation, and still remain deeply human in the spotlight? In this episode of Luca’s Insight Track, host Luca Allam sits down with the extraordinary Lebanese soprano Tania Kassis — a world-touring crossover artist, voice of unity, and passionate advocate for peace and independence.

Known for her fusion of classical opera and contemporary pop, Tania has performed everywhere from Paris’ Olympia to Seoul’s stadiums, capturing hearts with her powerful voice and emotional storytelling. But behind the global fame is a woman of depth, contradiction, and courage. Luca and Tania dive into the real-life stories behind her music — from forbidden love and heartbreak to identity, faith, and feminine resilience.

Tania opens up about her journey from singing in Beirut to launching the groundbreaking “Ave Maria” mashup that combined Christian and Islamic prayers — a daring message of coexistence that sparked global conversation. She shares the joys and pressures of being a producer, artist, and entrepreneur, and the inner battles that come with staying grounded in an image-obsessed, fast-moving world.

The episode explores what it means to lead with purpose, build your brand with integrity, and use music as a force for healing and social change. Tania speaks about her deep commitment to empowering young artists through the Tania Kassis Academy, why true independence has been her life’s mission, and how faith, storytelling, and emotional honesty have shaped her artistry.

Whether you’re an aspiring creative, a fan of cross-cultural music, or someone seeking inspiration on how to live a more intentional life, this episode will move you. It’s a story of passion, perseverance, and finding your voice — both on stage and within.

Tune in to discover how music can unite worlds, how women can claim their power, and how vulnerability can be the loudest kind of strength.
