Indian Classical Dance Is a Relatively New Umbrella Term for Various Codified Art Forms Rooted in Natya, the Sacred Hindu Musica
CLASSICAL AND FOLK DANCES IN INDIAN CULTURE Palkalai Chemmal Dr ANANDA BALAYOGI BHAVANANI Chairman: Yoganjali Natyalayam, Pondicherry. INTRODUCTION: Dance in India comprises the varied styles of dances and as with other aspects of Indian culture, different forms of dances originated in different parts of India, developed according to the local traditions and also imbibed elements from other parts of the country. These dance forms emerged from Indian traditions, epics and mythology. Sangeet Natak Akademi, the national academy for performing arts, recognizes eight distinctive traditional dances as Indian classical dances, which might have origin in religious activities of distant past. These are: Bharatanatyam- Tamil Nadu Kathak- Uttar Pradesh Kathakali- Kerala Kuchipudi- Andhra Pradesh Manipuri-Manipur Mohiniyattam-Kerala Odissi-Odisha Sattriya-Assam Folk dances are numerous in number and style, and vary according to the local tradition of the respective state, ethnic or geographic regions. Contemporary dances include refined and experimental fusions of classical, folk and Western forms. Dancing traditions of India have influence not only over the dances in the whole of South Asia, but on the dancing forms of South East Asia as well. In modern times, the presentation of Indian dance styles in films (Bollywood dancing) has exposed the range of dance in India to a global audience. In ancient India, dance was usually a functional activity dedicated to worship, entertainment or leisure. Dancers usually performed in temples, on festive occasions and seasonal harvests. Dance was performed on a regular basis before deities as a form of worship. Even in modern India, deities are invoked through religious folk dance forms from ancient times. -

The stone or tiled floor of temples and palaces Din the last few years, to take an obsessive pride in this was, for instance, replaced by the wooden floor of tryst with eternity. Thus, we can hardly be faulted in the proscenium stage, and those that had an element subscribing to very marketable propositions, like the of cushioning gave an ‘extra bounce’, which dancers one that claims our classical dance forms represent learnt to utilise.

SACHI, Society for Art & Cultural Heritage of India in collaboration with The Department of Religious Studies and Center for South Asia at Stanford University Invites You to Join an Illustrated Talk cum Dance on Thyagaraja Ramayanam presented by Ananda Shankar Jayant India's eminent Bharatanatyam dance artist and leading choreographer Thursday, Nov. 13, 2014, 7 p.m. Cummings Art Bldg., Classroom ART 2 435 Lausen Mall, Stanford University (corner of History Bldg., and Lausen Mall) Free Admission and Open to the Public; Recommended parking, around the Oval ‘As long as the mountains stand and rivers flow on earth, so long shall remain the legend of Ramayana.’ Sri Rama and the Ramayana have inspired seers and scholars across eons and centuries. It is a story that transcends space and time - a tale of love, devotion, and sacrifice. Rama's story has been written, interpreted and commented upon by mystic sages, poets and musicians, and by the Bhakta (devotee) with utmost reverence and ecstatic devotion. Telling and re-telling the Ramayana has not tired the storyteller, the listener or the viewer! While the essential story of the Ramayana remains the same, its various interpretations through the ages, represent a great diversity in the way the story and its characters are presented. In 1986 the artist Ananda Shankar choreographed and performed the Thyagaraja Ramayanam which explored the character of Rama through the vision of the poet saint Thyagaraja In an all time favorite work for the artist, Ananda will introduce and discuss select episodes/songs from the Ramayana as visualized by Thyagaraja and portray some in visual dance format set to Thyagaraja's music with select Valmiki Ramayana shlokas in enacting roles from the epic story.
