Tunisian singer Nébil Khelifa has just stepped onto the top podium at the international festival “Treasures of Creativity” in Sharm El-Sheikh. There, he claimed first prize in the Best Voice competition, an honour that rewards vocal control as much as interpretive precision.
The competition was devoted to the works of two giants of Arabic song, Mohamed Abdel Wahab and Riadh Sombati. Mastering such a repertoire calls for genuine technical rigour and an intimate familiarity with this musical heritage.
What was the musical challenge of this competition?
The Best Voice competition left no room for shortcuts: it required candidates to take on the repertoire of Mohamed Abdel Wahab and Riadh Sombati, two names that carry real weight in Arabic song. Tackling these works demands refined vocal mastery, far removed from approximate performances.
It was within this demanding framework that Tunisian singer Nébil Khelifa distinguished himself. He won first prize in this event, devoted to the two composers. His performance did justice to a repertoire that leaves no room for error.
