Ragamala Music and Dance Theater in "SVA" (vital force)
Featuring soloist Aparna Ramaswamy and guest artist Waidaiko Ensemble Tokara
Saturday, April 4, 2009
Ragamala Music and Dance Theater bridges the gap between ancient and modern cultures, exploring a unique style of living poetry for the stage. Rooted in Bharatanatyam, a classical dance form from southern India, Ragamala blends dance, music, and poetry. Sva ("vital force") combines the thundering percussion and stunning physicality of Japanese taiko drummers with Ragamala's complex rhythmic structures and dynamic athleticism.
"An entertaining, sublime dance exhibition. Juxtaposed against the powerful rhythms of Tokara's drums, [Ragamala's] sharp, subtle gestures become graspingly beautiful." -- Time Out New York
