kalashetra = mathematics....

[balakris1950]

one gets to hear a lot of varnams padams in dance which one doesn t hear in concerts. actually care only for the music in dance

[sudha6158]

Absolutely amazing. I learnt this varnam almost 25 years ago and had all but forgotten it. Please post the complete varnam! It's identical to the version I learnt.

[GalPower10]

[sl2desi]

[vijay12july89]

and ajeesh cud hav been better...:(

[vijay12july89]

@awiesha... i dont like vazhuvoor style at all! and i love kalakshetra style with a blend of pandanallur... and its far better to see a dancer in these two... n indeed i agree with ardhanariswar.. men dancing bharatanatiyam without so muchof feminity i think kalakshetra style has an edge over the rest. being a classical danceri know how important it is!

[madhandagr8]

Why that "oops!" at 6:05?? :(

[madhandagr8]

someone pls reply!!!

[2807sammy]

@madhandagr8: hey that "oops!" because the guy made a mistake..the step was to be done first left then right,but he did it left both the times...that is why the "oops!".....got it??

[fishiemyrtlebeach]

thanxx... i needed it.... lol

[sancharram]

OH I LOVE IT! its different then the other varnams i've seen i love the kalakshetra style and subs to its simaliar to the one i'm learning.

[Mohamana]

its really good. But I prefer the stronger thanjvaur bhavam.

[sasa110]

what is the tanjavur bhavam like?

[lucifer420]

Its softer and much more gentle and realistic approach to bhavam. Many have forgotten its rasa.

[sasa110]

i think louis malle was onto something when he said in his doc that institutionalising the art form cld lead to it dying out in the sense that aome of the old aesthetics r forgotten. i wld really like to see what the tanjavur bhavam is like!

[madhandagr8]

@sasa110 attend concerts of Sudharani/her disciples.. you ll get a flavour of it!

[umi414]

solid, though i'm not a huge kalakshetra fan. classic varnam!
