There are so many reasons to love Monaco.
It’s an exceptional place where anything is possible. Where luck finds those who come to meet it with a smile. A parade of experiences and memories await you under the Mediterranean sun... Ibrahim Maalouf, a jazz fusion trumpeter, composer and writer, lets us in on his passion for the Principality.
Let’s fall in love with Monte-Carlo!
What do you love most about Monaco?
Ibrahim Maalouf: Monaco vaguely reminds me of the image I have of pre-war Beirut: it’s elegant, classy, and teeming with curious visitors from all over the world.
What is your best memory of Monaco?
I.M: A tribute concert to the great Egyptian diva Umm Kulthum at the Opera Garnier, alongside the cream of New York Jazz. It was an incredibly inspiring blend of cultures.
In a word, Monaco is...
I.M: Awe-inspiring.
