Mohamed El Hayani ( محمد الحياني ) (1945-1996) was a Moroccan musician (vocalist) specialized in the so-called Moroccan modern music.
El Hayani was born in Casablanca, Morocco in 1945. He spent his childhood in the neighborhood of Derb Sultan before moving to Agdal in Rabat, where he lived with his older sister Fatna, who was his first supporter. She was the one who helped him enroll at the National Conservatory of Music as soon as he discovered his passion for singing, a passion that emerged from his earliest childhood, leading him to abandon his studies at the primary level. At the Conservatory, El Hayyani was taught by experienced artists such as the composer Abdelkader Rachdi, who was very impressed by his voice.
