In 1986, Marwan enrolled in the University of Saint Espirit Kasslik in Lebanon. He studied piano and harmony there and during his university years, and he won a prize in a music composition contest. The award was presented to the singer by former Lebanese President Amin Joumayel in the following
year. In 1988, Marwan produced his very first album Asak Habibi depending solely on himself in writing the lyrics and composing the songs, and of course producing it. The album was not that big of a hit unfortunately.Marwan started a new phase in his life in 1989, but not as a s inger. He performed in various variety shows, such as Aghani Aghani and Studio Al-Fan, on the keyboard. He continued as a keyboard player till 1996 and played with many famous
bands; like Sabah's band. But during that period, Marwan was able to come up with a single, Fik Yamma Balak. It was released in 1994 and established he as a talented singer. He then went on to lead Wael Kfouri's band as well as other famous Lebanese singers as before. This gave Khoury the chance to see the world and go on tour as a conductor.
