Music Salon Summer Updates

Hello everyone! We have two more salons and some events before we take
a break in August. Here are the details

1) Sunday June 28th 1 PM – NOTE THE TIME CHANGE

We will be focusing on the song Uska Dara. Most of us may know this
Turkish classic from Eartha Kit’s rendition. I will have sheet music
and lyrics. I’d also like to review and rehearse our past pieces:
Garoon Garoon, Ah Ya Zein, and Lamma Bada.

2) Sunday July 12th 1 PM – NOTE THE TIME CHANGE

In this session, we will be focusing on the rutchinitsa, a Balkan 7/8
rhythm with a fun line dance that Ziah will teach to those interested.
I have a melody that I’d like to teach. There’s no lyrics and no sheet
music for this piece, but it will be fun. Again, I’d like to review
and rehearse all of our past pieces. We will also be having a lot of
out of town guests at this salon because of the show the night before
at the Right Light Café. The earlier time is by request so that these
guests can get home at a reasonable time to their respective Southern
cities.

3) Saturday July 11th 9 PM - Red Light Café Tribal Carnival

This is a show Ziah and Awalim host every summer with guest dance and
music artists from around the southeast at the Red Light Café in
Midtown. We HIGHLY encourage everyone to show up so we can start a jam
after the show. Mics and sound system will be set up, so it’s the
perfect opportunity! I will send out a separate e-mail about this show
and afternoon workshop with Devyani Dance Company.

4) Friday, August 28th – Kavarna Hafla

Yet another jam session opportunity in Atlanta. Halfa starts at 8 PM,
We’d like to invite musicians at this time to jam before the dance
show begins, and we also want to invite musicians to perform after the
dance show to again start up a hafla and jam session. If anyone would
like to rehearse something more concrete, let me know and we can work
on it!
