Abigail_Adams_GreenwayWe are thrilled to have Abigail Adams Greenway as our speaker on Sunday, February 19th.  Abigail and her group, Tabla for Two, will also be doing the music at the service on Sunday. We open our hearts and minds to the message that she will share with us on this wonderful Sunday.

Be sure to stay for the “Winterfest” We Love Our Fellowship Village Luncheon and the Annual Congregation Meeting immediately after church. This will be a full morning and afternoon of Fellowship, Information, Food, and Inspiration! See you there!

About Abigail and ‘Tabla for Two’:
Tabla for Two was formed in 2012 when Abigail Adams Greenway and Masood Omari met in the Zamani House of Heritage, an Afghan textile showroom in Washington, D.C.

They formed a musical partnership after Abigail studied tabla with Masood. She totally immersed herself in her tabla studies to the extent that she left aside her career as a visual artist. Later Abigail learned to play the harmonium as a natural development of her classical Indian music studies. Inspired by someone who could keep the beat to accompany his musical travels, Masood began composing new music for two tabla players, particularly including one (Abigail) playing the three daya.

Utilizing the classical structure, Masood has written modern tabla compositions that are mesmerizing. Tabla For Two represents the best in East-West cooperation.

Abigail and Masood will be joined by a classical dancer, Sofya Savkina, at this concert.
