There is nothing better than the artist Ziad Burji towards the singer George Wassouf. Their strong friendship, which Burji reinforces in his continuous media dialogues about him, in dedicating the most beautiful melodies to him, and in reviving his songs with his voice in every concert he performs, the most recent of which was the Damascus Castle Festival concert last week, where he simulated Al-Wasuf in the songs “If Desire Will Help Me” and “They Envy Me” made the Syrian singer present with the voice of the Lebanese artist on his land, Syria, and it is not more deserving than my tower to supply George Wassouf’s stock and publish it with respect, passion, and consideration for those who accompanied him from the beginning and still give him support, appreciation, and response to the desires of no one Its flow depends on the method of “Ziad Burji”.
One artist to whom my horoscope dedicates part of his private life and artistic project. Al-Wasuf is present in every melody that grows inside my zodiac before it comes to light, whether Al-Wasuf included it in his singing group or not. It is enough for him to keep the Al-Wasuf perfume even if he transferred to another artist other than him, and was he not inspired by his scent and mud?
Al-Wassouf is always present in every interview from which Ziad Burji appears to his audience. The conversation begins with him and ends with him. How can I not enjoy the dialogues when the lightness of Al-Wassouf and his artistic sophistication overshadow the proceedings of the session, raising them to a rich and deep level where sincerity and loyalty are the characteristics of the dialogue.
Since sincerity and loyalty do not come from one side, the Syrian singer meets his favorite artist with commitments that are rare in the artistic community. He also records a presence in the details of Ziad Burji’s diaries and his artistic career, which Burji wanted to follow along the line of sophism, inspired by his artistic honesty and not imitating his musical self, and everyone is witness to the qualitative change in some corner of the Sufi identity that followed the path of Burji’s melodic phrase. Al-Wasuf’s support for Ziad does not stop at this point, but rather he is the first to interact with his artistic projects, both cinematic (his presence in the movie “No Mistake” alongside the Lebanese actress Jesse Abdo) and lyrical (his praise for my tower’s modern song “I am to whom”), and encourages all his musical works and benefits Whatever pleases him.
There is more than a spiritual relationship between George Wassouf and Ziad Burji, which may be described as someone trying to catch its shadow in the water. It is a relationship that only those who follow the sequence of its birth, growth and development can understand in the various stages of shrinkage and prosperity of the two singers’ career in very special circumstances.
