I had the immense pleasure of attending the JamBallah Belly Dance Festival in Portland, Oregon for the first time this past summer. What an AMAZING event!
Since I was in the land of amazing finger cymbal players, I decided I needed to up the ante with my acapella zill work for this performance.
This is what I created for the occasion...

A huge thank you to the organizers and volunteers who make JamBallah the kick butt festival that is it and to my dear friend Sharron for convincing me to attend.

A giant shout out to Saroyan Mastercrafts for providing the instruments that make the music that inspire my dance.
[I am playing the Grecians in Silver, the Afghanis in Brass and one very fabulous Al Taj in this video]
And a very appreciative nod to the marvelous Karim Nagi, Z-Helene and Lauren Checchio for inspiring my acapella zill madness. You all very much rock!
