This audio CD presents 'Adavus' and 'Korvais'- the two integral aspects of Bharathanatyam, India's traditional dance form.
What words are to a language, Adavu is to dance. It makes communication meaningful and free flowing by fusing different aspects of dance to create a seamless continuity and fluidity. Rigorous training in the adavus sets the foundation for exploring the many nuances of Bharathanatyam
Coming from eParampara Infotainment, as part of their Kalakriya Series, this audio CD can be an ideal practice aid for dancers and teachers.
It contains a track-wise recording of some of the often-used adavus, with one or more practice variations in each. A booklet naming each adavu and describing its delineation is also included.
There is a value addition to this product in the form of a recording of twenty Korvais (sequences of adavus) composed in different permutations and combinations of rhythm. This will prove useful to dancers and teachers in choreographing sequences of movement
