In February 2026, Nabil Aoulad Ayad and the Metropole Orchestra will join forces for “Started From the “Bottom, a unique performance that blends comedy, music, and personal story. It’s an evening full of energy, humor, and musicality, in which Nabil tells his story of his journey to the stage: a tale of trial and error, driven by an indomitable urge to create and perform.
For this project, Vladimir Nikolov wrote an arrangement on an 80’s classic pop song sung by Luther Vandross and written by him and Richard Marx: “Dance With My Father”, with Nabil in the role of Luther.
