Historical Palace Roof Collapses on Her Miraculous Escape for Abu Zahras Granddaughter from an Accident in Italy

Khaberni - Mariam Abu Zahra, the young Egyptian musician and granddaughter of the great artist Abdel Rahman Abu Zahra, survived a serious accident during a music tour in Italy, after part of the roof of a historical palace, where she was performing, collapsed.

The musician Ahmad Abu Zahra, through his Facebook account, captured the moment a part of the roof fell near his daughter while she was playing. He explained that the incident occurred during her music tour in Italian cities, where she performs in theaters and historical palaces.

Parts of the roof of a Renaissance-era palace fell near Mariam Abu Zahra while she was performing a piece by "Niccolo Paganini" in front of an audience, causing panic. Her father, the musician Ahmad Abu Zahra, confirmed that his daughter was unharmed, and the collapsed piece fell just inches from where she stood on stage.

Mariam quickly regained her composure, drank some water, dusted off her violin, then continued the concert until the end, amidst warm applause from the audience, who praised her courage and professionalism.

This artistic tour of Mariam's in Italian cities, including Genoa, Vercelli, and Florence, features performances in halls and palaces dating back centuries. These buildings suffer from clear structural decay and need urgent restoration to ensure the safety of visitors and artists.

Her father confirmed that Mariam is grateful for her escape and will continue her music tour with love and passion, noting that luck alone prevented a disaster.
