Books – Mustafa Hamza:
The Lebanese singer Farid Bou Said, the head of the Syndicate of Music and Singing Professionals, and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Unified Mutual Fund for Artists, was keen to resolve the controversy surrounding the star Amr Diab’s concert, which is scheduled to be held in Beirut, on August 19.
The past few hours witnessed news of the refusal to grant permits for the concert, with which the star Amr Diab will return to Lebanon after an absence of 13 years, and it is being organized by the Lebanese businessman Rabeh Moqbel.
The artist Farid Bou Said, in a special statement to “Masrawy”, said: “What is being reported about refusing to grant permits to hold the concert of the artist Amr Diab, is not true.”
And he continued: “There are procedures and fees required to be paid, which are as follows: 10% of the value of the concert, in addition to 2% paid at the Ministry of Finance, in favor of the Unified Mutual Fund for Artists, and if paid, all permits have been completed, and for our part in the Syndicate we welcome the artist Amr Diab in Lebanon “.
The star Amr Diab’s concert comes 13 years after he retracted his revival of the New Year’s party in Beirut in December 2010, and a legal dispute broke out between him and the late Lebanese concert contractor Jean Saliba.
The star, Amr Diab, is preparing to present his first concert in the summer season, next Friday, July 14, at the “SOL BEACH” tourist resort, which includes his latest and first project in the world of tourist hotels, “Locanda”, in cooperation with Emirati businessman Mohamed Alabbar.
Al-Hadaba is scheduled to present 3 new songs at the ceremony, including “Khalis Ala Qalbi”, which he recently released. It is written by the poet Muhammad Al-Bugha, and composed by Muhammad Yahya.
Concert tickets were offered for reservation through one of the platforms, and ranged between 2000, 4000, 8000, and 16 thousand Egyptian pounds.
