  • Department of Sanskrit
    DEPARTMENT OF SANSKRIT Dr. K. I. Treesa Asst. Professor In Sanskrit PERFORMING ARTS • KOODIYATTAM • CHAKYAR KOOTHU • NANGIAR KOOTHU • KRISHNANATTAM KOODIYATTAM Koodiyattam, also transliterated as Kutiyattam, is a traditional performing artform in the state of Kerala, India. It is a combination of ancient Sanskrit theatre with elements of Koothu, a Malayalam performing art which is as old as Sangam era. It is officially recognised by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. Koodiyattam (Kutiyattam), meaning "combined acting" in Malayalam, combines Sanskrit theatre performance with elements of traditional Koothu. It is traditionally performed in temple theatres known as Koothambalams. It is the only surviving art form that uses drama from ancient Sanskrit theatre. It has a documented history of a thousand years in Kerala, but its origins are unknown. Koodiyattam and Chakyar Koothu were among the dramatized dance worship services in the temples of ancient India, particularly Kerala. Both Koodiyattam and Chakyar Koothu originated from ancient south Indian artform Koothu which is mentioned several times in ancient Sangam literature, and the epigraphs of the subsequent Pallava, Pandiyan, Chera, and Chola periods. Inscriptions related to Koothu can be seen in temples at Tanjore, Tiruvidaimaruthur, Vedaranyam, Tiruvarur, and Omampuliyur. They were treated as an integral part of worship services, alongside the singing of Tevaram and Prabandam hymns. MIZHAVU Traditionally, the main musical instru ments used in Koodi yattam are mizhavu, kuzhitalam, edakka, k urumkuzhal, and sankhu. Mizhavu, the most prominent of these is a percussion instrument that is played by a person of the Ambalavas Nambiar caste, accom panied by Nangyaramma playing the kuzhithalam (a type of cymbal).

  • Ashtadasha Vadyam's and Temple Arts of Kerala
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 8 August 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Ashtadasha Vadyam’s and Temple Arts of Kerala Manoj Manikkoth PhD research scholar Vels University Abstract: Kerala – The God’s Own Country – is filled with the presence of music, dance, musical instruments, temple arts and temple rituals. The history of various traditional art forms rests in the soil of Kerala. About eighteen musical instruments are known as ‘Kshetra Vadyam’. It includes ‘Deva vadyam’ and ‘Asura Vadyam’ from which the distinct place for ‘Chenda’ can be acknowledged by observing where it is present. It might be ‘Chenda’s resonance that make the seventeen ‘Ashtadasha Vadyam’s to below the ‘Chenda’. Some of the musical instruments which are being used for Pooja rituals in temples are also being used for some classical dance forms in Kerala. The study of such musical instruments and the classical dance forms associated to it are the foundation of this journal. Some musical instruments are used only outside the temple and some are used inside the temple only. ‘Sopana Sangeetham’ is one of the popular among ‘Kshetra Sangeetham’. Only one musical instrument is used in ‘Sopana Sangeetham’ ie Idakka. Idakka is a musical instrument which is inevitable in ‘Mohiniyattam’ concert. Idakka is only used in ‘Kathakali’ when female role is presented. The ‘Chenda’ is an inevitable musical instrument in ‘Kathakali’. Altogether, five musical instruments in ‘Pakkamaelam” are used when ‘Kathakali’ is staged from which four are ‘Kshetra Vadyam’s, ‘Chenda’, ‘Idakka’, ‘Madhalam’, ‘Chengila’ and the one which is excluded in Kshetra Vadyam’s is ‘Ilathalam’.

    SPECIAL FEATURE Narayanan Nambiar Master of poetic rhythms K.K. Gopalakrishnan ctogenarian Kalamandalam P.K. Narayanan Nambiar is a towering figure among theatre percussionists of the country. OAwarded the Padma Shri this year, the mizhavu maestro has become the first of his clan to earn this national honour. This unassuming and quiet but artistically adamant gentleman was unmoved when he came to know of the honour. Of friends and fans who called on him to greet, he politely enquired, “Anything special?” When they congratulated him and said, “Asan, we are glad to know that you are among the Padma Shri recipients”, he just smiled with a hardly audible “Yes”. After a brief pause, Nambiar, son of one of the most wonderful theatre actors of the last century, the late Mani Madhava Chakyar, said, “It is my father’s blessings. I dedicate this honour to the memory of the masters of yore who preserved our tradition by dedicating their whole life.” [Sruti published a cover story on Mani Madhava Chakyar in August 1990/Sruti 71]. Along with the Chakyars, the Nambiars too played a Narayanan Nambiar K.K. GOPALAKRISHNAN significant role in preserving the legacy of Koodiyattam. quality to both the characters and his performance.

  • In Terms of International Theatrical History, Kutiyattam, the Sanskrit Theatre If Kerala, Can Perhaps Well Claim the Greatest Antiquity
    In terms of international theatrical history, Kutiyattam, the Sanskrit theatre if Kerala, can perhaps well claim the greatest antiquity. Kutiyattam is a form of theatre that originated in an ancient past, dating back to about two millennia. One of the most remarkable traditions of world theatre, it draws on the on the plays of the eminent Sanskrit dramatists of India. In recent times, Kutiyattam has gained the attention of theatre people and scholars from all over the world. Recently, Kutiyattam has been declared as among the “ Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” by UNESCO. It is for the first time in the history of UNESCO that select art forms across the world have been given this recognition as part its effort to safeguard expressions of oral heritage and traditional culture which are in danger of disappearing due to the effects of globalisation. While the performing tradition of Sanskrit plays have ceased to exist elsewhere in India, the continuation of an unbroken tradition of theatre surviving in Kerala, the southernmost tip of India is historically interesting. While there is a rich corpus of plays composed in Sanskrit written by dramatists like Asvaghosha, Bhasa, Sudraka, Kalidasa, Harsha, Bodhayana, Mahendravikramavarman and several others which have come down to us, there are no exact evidence or details regarding the staging of Sanskrit plays during the times they were written, except those reconstructed from history, references available from the Sanskrit plays themselves and from texts like Bharata’s Natya Sastra. The performance practice of Kutiyattam, though it broadly follows the abstract rules of aesthetics described in the Natya Sastra, has its own distinctive characteristics in terms of theatric conventions and method of acting.
