The album will include three unreleased tracks composed by Ziad, entitled Kbeeri Hal Mazha, Tinzakar Ma Tina’d and Sabah Wa Masa’.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>With Fairouz reducing the number of live performances to concentrate on recording new material, fans will be disappointed that she has chosen to hold her first concert of the year outside Lebanon. </B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Written by </B><B>Nayla Khoury</B></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER WIDTH="5"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="19" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="5" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER WIDTH="5"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="521" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="5" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
