Mathurya Murali - An Exposition of Tarangams
Kuchupudi is an ancient dance form of India that has its roots in the southern province of Andhra Pradesh that involves fast, rhythmic footwork and sculpture-like body postures. Essentially a dance-drama, it unfolds scenes from Hindu epics and mythology by combining music, dance and acting.
This product unveils the nuances of Tarangam an important component of Kuchupudi through a pulsating recital by Kalaimamani Uma Muralikrishna, a highly acclaimed artiste. The highlight of Tarangam is that the dancer dances on the edge of a brass plate marked by nimble but complicated rhythmic patterns.
