Greetings from Amsterdam on my way to Istanbul!
I’m laid up here for 5+ hours on my way to Istanbul for this years marvelous Music and Dance Tour to Turkey.
Immediately following the tour I have been asked to teach a workshop April 6th at the new Fazil Studio NYC in Istanbul. The legendary dance studio has closed in New York…but reopened in Istanbul. Check it out at: http://www.residance.net/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
March is the month of flowers bursting forth in Seattle and it is hard to go…but I am looking forward to a month of interesting work. My students gave a spectacular debut performance to a standing-room only audience in Seattle’s Town Hall…and the audience went wild. Ahmad and Kamand did a wonderful job of creating a community event and Pangeo and the St. Demitrios Dancers as well as Karavan Ensemble helped to create a really wonderful evening. I can’t wait until my students have their upcoming performances at NW Folklife, tour to Nepal and then their 2 evenings of recitals June 13-14th in Seattle.
