Chaturang | Kathak Performance by Guru Shama Bhate Group | Natyathoranam 2024

Chaturang is a traditional composition that blends music and dance, integrating four key elements: Tarana, Sargam, literature, and dance syllables. Set in Raag Des and Taal EkTaal, this Chaturang features a bandish depicting the playful ‘Chhed-Chhad’ of Lord Krishna. Choreographed by Guru Srimathi Shama Bhate, the piece beautifully showcases the essence of Kathak, including intricate footwork, graceful spins, fluidity, and virtuosity. The music is composed by Shri Kedar Pandit and Guru Shama Bhate.
