Visting Amman in March

Hello all. In addition to my trip to Israel/Palestine, I will be visiting Amman for 5 days. I have been invited to attend an international conference on the role of "Music and Peace". Would like some recommendations on where to go to hear music...where to shop. Is there an old city there with a souk? I have been to Jordan once but only to Petra. Any thoughts will be most helpful. I feel so blessed to be a musician, a true messenger of God. We are truly the ones that speak the univeral language than can bridge cultural barriers and rise above politics and policy. Nothing has helped me understand and bond with the Arab experience more than getting into and playing this incredible music. :xtreme:

Thank you, shukran, toda.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am picking up an oud from him in Amman. He won't tell me his name! :shrug:
