Assala's "On the Garden" controversy escalates
The article focused on the controversy sparked by the artist Asalah after she performed the song "Ala Roud Al-Habib" at her concert in Damascus. The melody of the song was attributed to Syrian heritage, specifically to the city of Latakia. Although it was circulated that the heirs would not pursue legal action because there was no melodic similarity to Sid Darwish's "Zouroni Koll Sana Marra," the Egyptian Society of Authors and Composers (SASERO) clarified that their musical analysis revealed a clear structural similarity between the two melodies, with some variations. The society called for proper documentation of sources and music archives to verify the origin of the melody, emphasizing that their goal is to protect the rights of authors and musical memory, not to undermine Syrian heritage. Meanwhile, the heirs of Sid Darwish denied any intention to file a lawsuit, affirming that there was no melodic similarity that would warrant such action.
