During this closing ceremony, which was a celebration of cultural diversity and artistic creativity, the Andalusian Orchestra of Fez, led by the artist Mohamed Briouel, accompanied by artists Zainab Afailal and Ahmed Marbouh, and the Moroccan Multicultural Orchestra, led by the artist Hamza Amazgar, presented a bouquet of authentic and distinguished Moroccan musical masterpieces.

On this occasion, the founding president of the Moroccan Association for Andalusian Music, Fatima Mabchour, highlighted that the third edition of the Moroccan Festival of Andalusian Music was exceptional by hosting diverse musical styles to highlight the richness and diversity that Moroccan music possesses.

Ms. Mabchour added, in a statement to the Maghreb Arabe Presse (MAP), that this edition was also distinguished by hosting, alongside Moroccan music, Arabic and international music, expressing her happiness at the large turnout of the public for the various evenings of this edition.

For his part, the artist Ahmed Marbouh expressed, in a similar statement, his happiness at participating in this festival, which constitutes an occasion to celebrate the diversity and richness that Moroccan musical heritage possesses, highlighting the importance of this cultural event in the radiance of Moroccan music, especially Andalusian music.

The Moroccan Festival of Andalusian Music, organised by the Moroccan Association for Andalusian Music with the support of the Ministry of Youth, Culture and Communication, in partnership with "Casablanca Events and Animation", the territorial brand (Wecasablanca), and with the support of the National Lottery management company, is considered a platform for cultural and artistic radiance, where the audience sails in the enchanting atmosphere of the fragrance of this ancient heritage, which embodies the unique blend between the depth of Moroccan roots and global cultural influences.

The curtain fell, last Saturday evening in Casablanca, on the activities of the third edition of the Moroccan Festival of Andalusian Music in an enchanting musical atmosphere that combined the fragrance of heritage and the diversity of Moroccan musical rhythms.
