Namaskar and hello everyone!
The composition that I have performed in this video is a thumri and is the third piece from my Kathak Manch Pravesh that took place on 17th August 2019, at the Theatre at the NUS University Cultural Centre.
“Chado chado ji bihari naari dekhe sagari”
A thumri is a Hindustani classical composition that describes the disposition of a nayika (the female heroine). This thumri - set to Raag Mishra Pahadi and Taal Dadra - depicts the playful romance between Radha and Krishna, where she attempts to dissuade him from teasing her in front of the prying eyes of the public.
The piece was choreographed by my guru, Guru Jyotika Joshi, with accompanying music by the following artistes:
Padhant - Guru Jyotika Joshi
Vocals - Guru Shibani Roy
Tabla - Guru Mihir Kundu
Pakhawaj - Guru Mulla Afsar Khan
Sitar - Guru Susanta Chowdhury
All the above-mentioned Gurus are tutors at the Singapore Indian Fine Arts Society.
I hope you enjoy the performance!
