Safir, with a first name whose Arabic etymology means travel, awakens to music through the practice of the guitar. Enrolled at the age of 12 in classical guitar lessons, noticed at the end of the year audition, his musical vocation became obvious. In 2004, he obtained a music license at the faculty of Pierre Mendès France in Grenoble, and in parallel a diploma in harmony and jazz guitar in Chambéry, he evolved between vocal ensembles and instrumental formations but it was the prospect of a opera singer that is taking shape and will not let go. He trained at the Grenoble Conservatory then at the National Superior Conservatory of Music and Dance in Paris, when he left he joined the Académie de l’Opéra-Comique until 2015. From 2017 to 2019, he played Alfredo in Traviata, You deserve a better future, created at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris and taken on international tour a hundred times. We could hear him recently at the Philharmonie de Paris in Die Massnahme, an opera by Hans Eisler and Bertold Brecht created for the first time in France, with Séquenza 9.3 (Catherine Simonpietri), Dafné au Théâtre de l’Athénée in Paris, a creation by Wolfgang Mitterer with Les Cris de Paris ( Goeffroy Jourdain ), and soon in Sonntag aus Licht, Stockhausen’s ultimate opera with Le Balcon (Maxime Pascal).
