The birth of the first “Wallain Nobeen” in the framework of the Wildlife Rehabilitation Program Arabausa

The tree is the amount of the Rahbani family. Ziad was the first to be trapped by the second generation. This happened in 1973, when Ibn Assi and Fayrouz wore the policeman’s uniform, and stood on the stage to play a simple role in the “station”. It is the same play that witnessed his first musical creations.

The rebel artist from a young age was not wanted to remain the prisoner of the family theater, and in the same year he wrote and presented his first special plays.

From “Sahra” in 1973 to “Haddate Hope” in 1994, and between them and the musical albums and songs they followed, Ziad Rahbani did not limit the championship to his person, despite being the writer, composer, director and actor. On the banks of the “Ziyadiya” tree, characters whose names entered the Arab collective memory grew. In his theater and music, Rahbani made heroes and raised talents to the level of stardom, to remain his first hero, his mother Fayrouz.

“The Palm of Dinine” … Joseph Saqr twin art

The sense of humor and ridicule of Ziad Rahbani has emerged since his first play, and that name he gave to her hero. Although “Sahra” was closer to a musical session more than to a play, but it formed a successful beginning that the audience has long and loved her hero, the owner of the cafe “palm tree.” What gave a magic to the character, the voice of Joseph Saqr, whose name was associated with the works of Ziad Al -Rahbani, as they were an artistic twin, as Saqr carried his voice the most prominent songs that the artist wrote.

“The case is tired, O Laila”, “O daughter of the assistant” … This is some of the songs of “Evening” with the voice of Joseph Saqr, who returned in other characters and plays. He is “Barakat” in “Al -Sarah”, “Ramez” in “As for Bakra Show”, “Abu Laila” in “A Long American Film”, and “Al -Mukhtar” in “Shi Fosil”.

Was it in the characters that a mother in his true person, Joseph Saqr turned into a hero Ziyad Rahbani. With his sweet and warm voice, the songs crossed the hearts of the audience and made a place in the archive of the Arabic song, without allowing the dust of the years to accumulate above it.

“I am the one who is longing”, “My look, laugh, boy,” “Aishah and a Black”, “Listen, Reda”, “O time of sectarianism”, “Return, God willing”, “Al -Dalal jam”, “Ayyash’s phone” … all works written by Ziyad Al -Rahbani, Joseph Saqr, the best of her ambassador.

Marwan Mahfouz … a voice that immortalized the songs of Ziad

Before traveling his voice through the continents and becoming the artists of the Lebanese nostalgia in the Diaspora, Marwan Mahfouz stood up to a young man at the Ziyad Rahbani Theater. The latter discovered an exceptional talent and gave him, along with his role in “Evening”, some of the most beautiful songs.

The years crossed and the cooperation between them did not continue, but the name Mahfouz remained linked to actions such as “The Dime Slaughterie”, “One of the ones who will enhance us”, and “I am afraid that you will be your love”, in addition to “O Saif, the most promising of Tayel”, which many do not know is written by Ziad Rahbani.

Carmen wearing … a star on the stage and in the heart

Today is one of the most prominent small screen stars in the Arab world. But its launch was at the Ziad Rahbani Theater. Actress Carmen Labs was accompanied by his theatrical beginnings, so she participated in “Al -Surrah”, and later in “A Long American Film”, “On Dignity and the stubborn people”, and “Were it not for the space of hope”.

The relationship between Ziad and Carmen did not stop at the stage of the theater, but rather turned into an exceptional love story that lasted 15 years and was written in lines and songs. According to statements to wearing, the instability of living played a role in the end of the relationship, but it is certain that she had been in the song “I have confidence in you” with the voice of Fayrouz, which Al -Rahbani gave to the woman who did not like anyone as he loved her.

“Zakaria”, “Professor Nour” and others … Ziyad Rahbani is the hero of himself

In a manner outside the text and is not similar to acting in anything, Ziad Rahbani appeared as a hero on his theater. In “Al -Surrah” (1974) and “As for Bakra Shaw” (1978), Zakaria was the deluded “wealthy” husband, who surrendered to a reality that is steeped in moral decay and living.

As for “A Long American Film” (1980), the play that takes place in the mental hospital, which is boldly and ironic with the psychological and mental impact of the Lebanese civil war, and Rahbani embodied the personality of “Rashid”, the patient with a high and angry voice all the time. In “Shi Fosil” (1983), he approached his true personality, so “Professor Nour”, that is, the director of the play that symbolizes its pitfalls to the failure of the Lebanese composition, and criticizes in its folds the ideal of the theater of the two Rahbani brother, meaning Father Assi and Uncle Mansour.

“Abu Al -Zulf” and his companions

One of the daughters of Ziyad Rahbani’s ideas that entered history is the personality of “Abu Al -Zulf” in “Shi Filler”. It is a scene that does not exceed a quarter of an hour, in which the actor Ziad Abu Absi enters the stage, to expose a flagrant and prestigious realism, social, sectarian and artistic hypocrisy in Lebanon, who is embedded in light of heritage and ideals. Abu Absi was one of the main actors at the Rahbani Theater, as he appeared in all his works.

Like many artists who have become stars just because their name is linked to the name of Ziad Al -Rahbani, and their repeated appearance in his theatrical works. Among them are Sami Hawat, Peter Farah, Rafik Najm, Gazarus Antonian, and others.

Heroes outside the theater

Ziad Rahbani did not believe in individual success, but rather surrounded himself with groups of artists. With the passage of generations, the faces and names were changed and his conviction did not change with the power of the group, whether it was in theatrical works or in musical albums.

Away from the theater, he collaborated musically with many voices. Lebanese show star Madonna states that her lyrical beginnings were with Ziad Rahbani and that she was disciplined at his hands, and in the 1990s, a song beyond the ordinary gathered in form and content entitled “How are you”.

Among the stars who had the opportunity to cooperate with Rahbani, the singer Latifa Al -Tounsia. It was not limited to one song, but on the 2006 album, titled “Sure Information”. It has spread strongly among the works of the album, “The text of the atmosphere”, and “Amlla House”.

There are many voices that Ziad Al -Rahbani stipulated from the source of his talent, as remained notes and words in the drawers of his office. It was supposed to be singing well -known Arab voices, including the Egyptian artist Sherine Abdel Wahab.

Fayrouz … absolute championship

Among the heroes made by Ziyad Rahbani, one was distinguished by the merely that it came to that talent to this world. Fayrouz, the mother, the heroine of Ziyad without a competitor. She gave him life, and he returned and gave her a new birth to her art after Asi’s page was folded in the 1980s.

Ziad Al -Rahbani re -created Fayrouz in his way. It is “Fairuyad”, as some of their people like to call it. He made her sing a language closer to the language of people, as if he wanted to forget it after she had long sitting on an unimaginable throne.

From the album “My Knowing You” in 1984, from which the song “Zaali Talla” spread, “Nor how” in 2002, Ziyad grabbed his mother’s hand with a child and a director of a manager.

With Ziad, Fayrouz broke the hesitation barrier, and she went out of the text and sang “How are you”, “It is not a story”, “Peace be upon me”, and “My Evy Survey”, “Sabah and Misa”, and many others.

In the nineties, the voice lady may not expect to bid farewell to the son who gave birth to the 22 -year -old, and she released her to art at the 39th, then she fought on his side with her major musical revolutions in sixty and seventy.
