Música Del Río House Concerts Presents Krista Detor
|
|

|
Contact: Fred Munroe 466-6941 fmunroe@kcbx.net
|
| |
|
As the most forceful, yet elusive, voice behind a piano we have ever heard, Krista Detor has a musical style very hard to categorize. Carrie Newcomer says Krista sings “with a voice that could sing the phone book and make it sound beautiful and compelling…” We agree.
Musical styles and influences abound in her writing and she displays a versatility that is hard to categorize. A poetic and sought-after lyricist, Krista’s songs are vignettes, telling stories of time and experience. A folk singer with a piano instead of a guitar.
We will be hosting Krista on her first West Coast house concert tour. As one of the foremost purveyors of Americana to sold-out European audiences, Krista does not come west very often. It was a truly pleasant surprise that she accepted our invitation to appear at Música Del Río. Krista will be joined here by David Weber on guitar. The elephant will not be joining them on this tour.

Yoga in the Chair is offered on Tuesday/Thursdays from 9:00 - 10:30 in the exercise room at The Palms, 55 Broad Street, San Luis Obispo, CA., free of charge to those over 50 years of age.
Yoga in the Chair is a part of the many life long learning classes provided by Cuesta College Emeritus Programs.
Yoga in the Chair is designed to be a whole package of health, healing and prevention based on the ancient hatha yoga principles of centering, balancing and breath control. Each class focuses on building understanding of learning the full body breath, and relaxing into the breath so that there is an effortless effort when moving into one of the 908 yoga postures that heal the back, nurture the nervous system and aligns the spine with ease.
Yoga erases stress. Chronic tension in the back, neck and shoulders is dissolved with daily practice.
Fran Dukehart, CYI encourages students to listen to their body and to stretch only in a manner that is enjoyable and comfortable. Those who have had insomnia, indigestion, inflexibility and tight joints have reported a renewed vigor and vitality even with one class.

Cal Poly’s College of Architecture and Environmental Design invites the university community and the public to participate in the Global Climate Change Teach-In Webcast, Tuesday, Feb. 20, 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. PST in Chumash Auditorium.
Students, faculty and practicing professionals in the architecture, planning and design communities around the world will learn how they can reduce greenhouse emissions through design during the international, interactive event. The event is free but seating is limited to 800.
Participants unable to join the Chumash event can log on at http://www.2010imperative.org and are encouraged to log on in groups to help avoid excessive system load.
The Teach-in is sponsored by Architecture 2030, in partnership with the Campus Climate Challenge, the United States Green Building Council, the American Institute of Architects, the Home Depot Foundation, AmericaSpeaks and others.

During the Teach-in, participants can interact with leaders at the forefront of design and climate change.
