Doha, December 18 (QNA) - During the FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2025 final at Lusail Stadium, Media City Qatar revealed the new song 'Nabd Qatar' as the centerpiece of this year's 'Qatar SoundBeat' campaign, in the presence of national leadership, government officials, visiting dignitaries, and football fans.

The premiere took place during the match, uniting spectators from across the MENA region in a shared moment of national celebration on Qatar National Day.

Conceived and composed by regionally acclaimed musician Omar Rahbany, and produced by Rahbani 3.0, one of Media City Qatar's licensed companies, the premiere unfolded with the song accompanied by a synchronized light show, transforming Lusail Stadium into a canvas of sound and light on one of the Arab world's biggest stages. The song, performed by the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra, brings together the talent of 68 musicians and the sounds of 30 instruments in a rich orchestral arrangement.

'Nabd Qatar' draws inspiration from the nation's defining sounds. The song is shaped through three eras of sound - 'Tradition,' 'Classical' and 'Modernity' - that come together to tell the story of a nation that honors its roots while contributing to a broader future for Arab creativity.

The lyrics, drafted by Abdullah Khaled Abdulquddus, are rooted in thousands of public contributions gathered during Media City Qatar's Guinness World Record-setting 'Qatar ArtBeat' campaign for Qatar National Day 2024, transforming the nation's words into a musical tribute to unity and shared identity.

HE Chairman of Media City Qatar Sheikh Dr. Abdulla bin Ali bin Saud Al-Thani said: "Qatar SoundBeat turns our nation's raw sounds into a single piece. This is 'Where Next is Made.' As we mark Qatar National Day, we continue to support Qatar National Vision 2030 by building a media industry that honors our heritage and prepares us for a creative future."

For his part, Omar Rahbany, composer of ‘Nabd Qatar’ and co-founder of Rahbani 3.0 said: "Bringing this composition to life required the collective effort of dozens of music technicians, instruments and disciplines, united to create something far greater than its parts."

In turn, Deputy Executive Director of the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra Dr. Nasser Sahim said: "Performing 'Nabd Qatar' was an honor for the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra. Bringing this composition to life alongside Media City Qatar reflects our commitment to contributing to the country's creative vision and sharing Qatar's story through music."

'Nabd Qatar' is available on the streaming platforms including YouTube, Spotify, and Anghami. (QNA)
