Dakshina’s 2010 FALL FESTIVAL
- October 8, 7:30pm at Linclin Theatre
Mallika Sarabhai returns to DC after winning the Padma Bhushan in early 2010. She and her company perform SAMPRADAYAM, an evening of classical dance tracing a return to her Bharatanatyam roots. Dakshina will open the performance followed by the featured performance.
Sarabhai was the founding guest artist for Dakshina’s Fall Festival series, starting the Festival off with her Meera at the Duke Ellington school in 2004. Sarabhai and her full company return to DC with her critically acclaimed production of Sampradayam. Bhajans have always been a mainstay of devotional music in Hinduism and the rousing passion of voices accompanied by nothing but cymbals creates a trance like effect. However, over the last couple of decades bhajans have been influenced by other music traditions like Bollywood and Ghazals, light classical music and western instruments. In a move to counter this and find the real community flavor of Bhajans, there is a strong revival movement in southern India focusing on the essence of the form that is without heavy instrumentation.
