Rituranga-
A Symphony of Seasons
(40 mins):


It is a pure dance presentation, a celebration of the seasons. The seasons, grishma(summer), varsha(monsoon), sharat(post monsoon), hemanta(autumn), sheeta(winter) and vasanta(spring) are explored, but through an idiom which is radical, experimental, and a colourful geometry of designs against space and time. The breath, fragrance and feel of each season connect to the inner soul through visual and body metaphors. Set to Dr Partha Ghose’s symphonic raptures, in this new language of dance, Tagore is set free in a realm of non-linguistic, cross-cultural movement and expression.
