Bahirang is performed to a recorded score created specially for the company by the world-renowned Shankar Mahadevan. In this piece, dancers deeply rooted in traditional technique use the opportunity given by freedom to explore their dance form to give it new shape. Change is seen here as a transitional process, not finality. Confined light projection defines the restraints and the boundaries of the traditionalist, and lighting of changing form represents the dancers freedom to explore and take new risks.
Very effective use of lighting and love the two styles together. Nicely done!
