Indian Classical Dance ..... An Introduction. |
|
India has a very rich tradition of classical dance. The
Natya Shastra, which is the
oldest surviving text on stagecraft in the world, spends a
considerable time discussing it. In the old days of the
theatre, the dancers would mime the story while the singers
would sing the dialogue. The instrumentalists would accompany
them all. The nature of the old theatre was such that the
dancers occupied a central position.
|
|
For many centuries the dancers were
attached to the temples. This maintained a strong religious flavour
to dance. Even today many of the traditional themes are mythological
in nature. |
|
Over the centuries different areas have
given their own colour to the ancient classical tradition. Today the
acknowledged classical styles are: Bharatnatyam of Tamil Nadu,
Kathakali of Kerala, Kuchipudi of Andhra Pradesh, Manipuri of
Northeast India, Orissi from Orissa, and Kathak from north India and
Pakistan. Each of these styles has a strong regional connection and
none can claim to be representative of the entire Indian
subcontinent. |
