Global Groove Duet: is Meg York, woodwinds and percussion and Peter Jacobs, oud.  Meg plays Turkish style clarinet, Macedonian kaval (Shepard's flute) Arabic darabuka (goblet shaped drum)and riqq (classical Arabic tambourine), and Persian Daf (frame drum with rings).   She has a Western Classical Performance degree in Clarinet and Flamenco Guitar from University of New Mexico and has played with master world musicians for over 20 years.   Pete is an old hand at Jazz Bass, and leads music at the Columbine Unity Conference Center.  He also plays the 12 string fret-less lute of the Mediterranean world called the oud.  We'll explore many of the different sounds of these ancient traditions included how the melodies and rhythms connect, some simple dance steps to embody the melodies, and even invite folks to play simple percussion patterns with us.  Come and learn about the mesmerizing beauty of this ancient music and perhaps purchase a percussion instrument for yourself!  More info at www.megyork.com

This part of the session focuses on movement, melody, and rhythm.
