Syrian singer Asala Nasri held a performance on May 16 called “Asala Fe Wasat Al Balad” (Asala Downtown) at the Egyptian Opera House.
Asala sang at the same place where the famous Egyptian singer Muhammad Munir performed.

The fans arrived hours in advance and by 9:30pm the “Downtown” music group went up on stage and performed their well-known song “Qaribili” (Get close To Me).
After the group “Downtown” performed two of their songs they started playing the opening of Asala’s song “Ya Majnon” (You’re Crazy) and the fans went wild when they saw Asala approach the stage. Asala first sang “Ayez Al Haq” (Do You Want the Truth) with its new mix, and then she sang “Wa Ihna Sawa” (When we’re Together).
