>> mejorana. >> hinojosa: mejorana. mejorana. >> yes. >> hinojosa: and it's a kind of blues? >> it's... i call it our panamanian blues. and it has roots, of course, spanish roots, as a lot of the music of latin america. this is a wonderful experiment, because it deals with folk material, connecting with folk material from the north. like you have folk music where the blues come from, and folk music from latin america, folk music from south america. so thiis the ideof pan-american jazz, actually-- connecting the whole americas to one sound. >> hinojosa: so you've named this. you call it pan-american jazz? >> well, it's a movement, i think. it's a movement that started in the 20th century with a lot of people doing it. you know, i learned a lot from paquito, for example. he really... >> hinojosa: paquito d'rivera. >> yes, paquito d'rivera, great cuban saxophonist. he introduced me to a lot of music, playing venezuelan waltzes, playing old contradances. and the desire... a lot of the desire to combine folkloric material with traditional rhythms, with latin american song forms, w

i'm maria hinojosa. this is one on one. your majesty queen noor, what an honor to have you here. >> oh, i'm delighted. thank you. >> hinojosa: there's something quite beautiful. you know, most people now, when i was telling people that i was going to interview you, and i'd say, "i'm interviewing queen noor," they'd say, "oh, we love here, we love queen noor," this feeling of love. but people around the world know you as queen noor. >> mm-hmm. >> hinojosa: they don't know you as lisa halaby, the woman who you re. you were growing up as an american girl, and i think one of the things that people are fascinated by about you is the fact that you actually... you could make this decision to say, "i was lisa... i am, or was lisa halaby, an american girl, but i could also be this, i could also be royalty of someplace else." this ability to basically say, "i could be someone else," change your identity, is really quite extraordinary. >> well, first of all, it was my husband who changed the identity in the way you described it, with
