Bharatanatyam Kalakshetra Bani Vol 3 Varnam & Keerthanam

This product takes you to the next level of a unique Bharatanatyam style deeply rooted in the illustrious Pandanallur style that inspired Smt. Rukmini Devi Arundale, the founder of Kalakshetra to create a structured curriculum and standardize the teaching methods. Based on this technique which went on to become a distinctive genre in itself as the Kalakshetra bani, it presents
Varnam, a colorful component in which the nritta, nritya and natya elements are finely juxtaposed
Keerthanam, a descriptive devotional piece that provides immense creative scope for a performing artiste.
Performed by Kalakshetra students in the sylvan surroundings of their alma mater, it sincerely captures the spirit and style of the institution. Each piece is preceded by a lucid introduction by a Kalakshetra faculty member which is at once educative and informative.

I love when the acca's dance, the foot and floor makes a clapping noise. I always had the wish to learn in Kalakshetra because it is the number one dancing school I know that's in India. My mom is also a dance teacher and came to Kalakshetra. Keep this wonderful dancing school for many many years.

No need to say that very well done. Have to comment the good diction of the narrator.

[@bndancer98]

The first song is very beautiful... who is the singer? The choreography was also very nice too :) Mrs. Arundale's choreography is always so creative and graceful...the dancers also danced very well! Especially the two in the front.... very crisp adavus and controlled eye movements! Good job! Perhaps you could post another dance from this group? They're so synchronized!
