Get ready, Abu Dhabi! The world-renowned Dutch violinist and conductor André Rieu is bringing his legendary Johann Strauss Orchestra to the Etihad Arena on March 9th. And this time, he's bringing a secret weapon – a 15-year-old singing sensation named Emma Kok.
You might remember Emma from her viral rendition of "Voilà," a performance so powerful it racked up over 60 million views and catapulted her into the spotlight.
But this young star's story goes far beyond a viral hit. At an age when most teens are worried about homework and first dates, Emma is battling a chronic illness, advocating for others, and sharing her powerful story through music.
A Dream Debut: Sharing Her Story on the World Stage
“I am so honored and excited to be performing in Abu Dhabi,” Emma gushed in an exclusive interview with City Times. “I'm going to tell my story to the audience and pour all of my emotions into the songs.

And what a story it is! Imagine being 15, sharing the stage with a musical icon like André Rieu, and knowing that thousands of eyes are on you. It’s a dream come true for any aspiring artist. But for Emma, it’s even more significant. She's not just singing, she's baring her soul and proving that even in the face of adversity, your voice can be your superpower.
