An evening that thoughtfully and artistically brings together two hallmarks of the classical Indian performing arts canon: Navarasa and Thyagaraja. Be transported into a realm of soulful stories, where mythology and poetry come to life through an exploration of Thyagaraja’s genius. Through this experience, the dancers will invite you into their world, where you can see and feel all that they do, from boundless wonder, to tender love, piercing anger, and more.
This repertoire will be presented by Bharatanatyam exponents Shobana Bhalchandra and Anand Satchidanandan, disciples of the legendary Dhananjayans, in this illuminating presentation, Thyagarasa, combining the beauty of Thyagaraja’s Kritis with a vivid exploration of the challenging Navarasa, or nine emotions. Join us at Medai, Bengaluru for this unique evening of classical dance from a true exponent of the art form.
