Thread: Legacy of Ibrahim Farrah Seminar in NYC April 8-10 2011

Just got advance notice from Phaedra of this workshop in NYC, April 8-10 2011!!

Remembering Bobby:
A Dance Seminar Dedicated to the Legacy of Ibrahim Farrah

Ibrahim Farrah touched many lives, including those of dancers who may
be unaware of the fact that their learned techniques can be traced
back to the work of this great master.
He was an original and an innovator in the world of Oriental and
Folkloric Near Eastern Dance as a Performer/Choreographer/Teacher and
Publisher.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to study the method, technique and
choreographies of the late great Middle Eastern Dance Master. The
seminar will be taught by first and second generation
dancers/proteges/colleagues, who were intensively trained by Ibrahim
Farrah and were members of his dance company.

PHAEDRA, ELENA LENTINI, JAJOUKA, SAMARA, JEHAN KAMAL, MISH MISH BIN'T
AMIRA, SHERRY ROSE

Other activities for that weekend include
Reception for Workshop Participants
Panel Discussion : (participants to be announced)
Gallery Talk : on the new Ancient Egyptian exhbition: Haremhab, The
General Who Became King, with Dr. Phyllis Saretta At the Metropolitan
Museum of Art.

The seminar is geared not only to those who studied with Ibrahim
Farrah, but also to the new generation of dancers who never had the
opportunity of studying with him.

The classes will be held in the beautiful MMAC Studios in midtown
Manhattan. 248 West 60th between 10th &11th Ave
