The "Mazzika Orchestra" received an official invitation from the French state to hold a public concert in honor of Lebanese Diva, Fairouz, which it eagerly accepted. The ceremony will be held in the city of Marseille on the seashore, where a private open-air theater is being built to host more than ten thousand people, with the participation of major Arab and French artistic figures and representatives of the French state and Arab embassies. The "Mazzika Orchestra", known internationally for its mastery of performing "Fairouziyat" songs, is the only band in Europe and the Arab world that is technically qualified to organize and perform concerts in honor of the Lebanese Diva. During the scheduled concert, the Orchestra will present more than 15 songs by Fairouz with distinctive orchestral arrangements, including some difficult songs. The concert, which will be held next Saturday, is considered the fourth 'Fairouziyat' concert held by the 'Mazzika Orchestra' in France, as it continues to distinguish itself from other Arab bands with its special performance style and precise methodology inspired from Western orchestras.
