  • Alekya: Spilling Ink at Dance Place by Rachael Appold
    REVIEW: “Alekya” Spilling Ink at Dance Place REVIEW: Alekya: Spilling Ink at Dance Place by Rachael Appold Intertwining spirituality, poetry, and dance can prove to be a significant task, as these three categories manifest in ways which are unique to each person. Spilling Ink took on this task using Classical Indian dance as their medium. I witnessed this collaboration of ideas, titled Alekhya: Spilling Ink, at Dance Place in Washington, D.C. on Sunday, January 29th, 2017. As the lights dimmed in the theater, a male dancer, Vijay Palaparty entered from upstage right. He moved onto the stage almost undetected; his walk was so soft that it would more accurately be described as a glide. Palaparty floated downstage right where six ceramic jars (five small and one large) awaited him. As he knelt down and executed water-like motions with his arms, a poem was recited through the speakers. The poet spoke of learning his own truth, your truth (the audience’s), and our truth (everyone’s); these truths presented the concept of religion and spirituality. This immediate collaboration of dance and poetry became a motif which would be used to preface each piece in the performance. Each time Palaparty would return to his jars, the other dancers would leave the stage and a new element was added. The third time around, the poet’s words were scrawled in subtitles on the stage floor with a projector, lending itself to the idea of writing in ink. The fourth time, the other dancers stayed onstage, swaying their arms and torsos as Palaparty hovered over his jars.

  • A Thematic Production in Bharatanatyam a Thematic
    “Krishna as child, lover and God ……. … … . p l a y f u l , r o m a n ti c a n d a w e - i n s p i r i n g b y tu r n s … … . …….evoking wonder in Yas hoda, enchantment among the Gopis, devotion in Andal, yearning in Meera, ageless love in Radha, and unswerving dedication in Rukmini” A Thematic Production in Bharatanatyam presented by students of Shree Bharatalaya, Chennai, India and Silambam, USA An internationally acclaimed Bharatanatyam production, Krishnam Vande Jagatgurum was originally conceived and choreographed in 1989 by Prof. Sudharani Raghupathy, with music scored by Vidwan Madurai N. Krishnan, for the Madras Chapter of the International Dance Alliance. Since its premiere, Krishnam Vande Jagatgurum has been performed widely to packed audiences, and had a most successful tour of the United States in 1992. Fifteen years later, Padmashree Prof. Sudharani Raghupathy’s senior disciples, now performers and teachers in their own right, based in various locations in North and Central America, have come together to bring this premiere production back to the stage in the United States. Krishnam Vande Jatagurum takes the audience on a two-hour journey through the life and exploits of Krishna. Beginning with an invocation, the dancers depict the Dashavataram of Jayadeva, which presents the concept of Krishna as the Avatari. The narrative begins with the poet Andal as the Sutradhari or Narrator. Andal describes the baby Krishna with indulgent love and joy, and the audience is treated to the scene of the baby Krishna playing with Yashoda and the Gopis.

  • June 2018 Classical Indian Dance Forms
    Classical Indian Dance Forms June 2018 Indian classical dance, or Shastriya Nritya, is an umbrella term for various performance arts rooted in religious Hindu musical theatre styles, whose theory and practice can be traced to the Sanskrit text NatyaShastra. The Natya Shastra is the foundational treatise for classical dances of India, and this text is attributed to the ancient scholar Bharata Muni. The text Natya Shastra describes the theory of Tandav dance(Shiva), the theory of Rasa, Bhava, expression, gestures, acting techniques, basic steps, standing postures- all of which are a part of Indian Classical Dances. This ancient text states that dance and performance arts are a form of expression of spiritual ideas, virtues and the essence of scriptures. While the Natya Shastra is the revered ancient text in the Hindu tradition, there are numerous other ancient and medieval Sanskrit dance-drama related texts that further discuss and expand on the classical repertoire of performance arts, such as the Abhinaya Darpana, Abhinaba Bharati, Natya Darpana, Bhava Prakasa and many others. The Rasanubhuti is the ultimate aim of these dance forms. Natya Shastra speaks of Eight Rasas. They are as following: 1. Shringar: Love 5. Veer: Heroism 2. Hasya: Humorous 6. Bhayanak: Fear 3. Karuna: Sorrow 7. Bibhats: Disgust 4. Raudra: Anger 8. Adbhoot: Wonder As time passed, artists improvised many classical dances which resulted in the present day forms. Today, Indian classical dances are very popular all over the world. These dances are being performed inside temples, as dance festivals in archaeological sites, or even on stage in large public theatres.

You must have noticed that in all the other six styles that you have been introduced, the vaachika abhinaya has been rendered by the singers who accompany the dancers. In very exceptional instances like in Kathakali certain characters emit some specified sounds or in Kathak where the dancer recites the bols (padhant) the dancer does not speak. Of course, you might have that some dancers are accomplished singers and sing the song during the nritya portions but there is always an accompanist. In any case in no dance style the dancers indulge in speaking dialogues just as in a drama. But in Kuchipudi you find the dancers breaking into spoken dialogues in between dance sequences. One can classify Kuchipudi as a "dance-drama". It is from the southern state of Andhra . Pradesh. It is one of the oldest performing arts from this region. Earlier it was also known as Kuchipudi Bhagavatam, Kuchipudi Yakshaganam and Kuchipudi Bharatam. Until a few decades ago the enactment of both, the male as well as female roles, was done solely by male dancers. In this aspect it resembles the other dance-drama style of the south - Kathakali.

  • Classical Dances of India: Everything You Need to Know About
    Classical Dances of India: Everything you need to know about India is known for its rich cultural legacy. Performing arts like classical dances are integral parts of Indian culture. This is a mega-post which cover the details of all classical dances in India. Origin of classical dances Most of the classical dance forms originated in temples. Worshipping was the main aim. Although every dance form evolved from different regions, their roots are the same. The roots can be traced from the Sanskrit text – ‘Natya Shastra’. The first compilation of Natya Shastra is dated between 200BCE and 200CE. As time passed, artists improvised many classical dances which resulted in the present day forms. Today, Indian classical dances are very popular dance all over the world. Rasanubhuti: The 8 Rasas The Rasanubhuti is the ultimate aim of these dance forms. Natya Shastra speaks of Eight Rasas. They are as following: 1. Shringar: Love 2. Hasya: Humorous 3. Karuna: Sorrow 4. Raudra: Anger 5. Veer: Heroism 1/17 www.arihantcareergroup.com 6. Bhayanak: Fear 7. Bibhats: Disgust 8. Adbhoot: Wonder Note: Later Abhinav Gupta added a ninth one to it, Shanta: Peace. What are classical dances? Unlike folk dances, classical dances are all about technicalities and strict rules. Acharya Nandikeshawara’s ‘Abhinaya Darpan’ and Sharangdev’s ‘Sangeeth Ratnakar’ (Nartanadhyaya), along with the Natya Shastra forms the foundation of technicalities of all the classical dance forms (which includes their body movements, rasa, bhava etc). There are Nine Classical Dances as recognized by Ministry of Culture, Government of India. Let’s have a look at these classical dances – one by one.
