Marwan Khoury and Karima Al Saqli together

Marwan Khoury

Morocco has launched its annual music festival Mawazine in the capital Rabat. The festival was launched with a grand performance by prominent Lebanese singer Marwan Khoury and Moroccan singer Karima Al Saqli.

According to the London based Elaph, the two singers sang a duet titled “Lebanon” written and composed by Marwan. The song talks about the good relationship between Lebanon and Morocco.

The first night of the festival was launched on the same day that prominent Algerian singer (insert a name) passed away, which shocked the Arab world. This fact led Marwan and Karima to chose a song by the late singer as a special dedication.
