Sabdam – the levels & layers DVD

This product presents the intricacies of Sabdam, a feature increasingly becoming rare in todays Bharatanatyam repertoire. Here Priyadarsini Govind, the well-known danseuse treats the viewers to the theoretical aspects of Sabdam with sprightly demonstrations by upcoming artistes. It is a colourful exposition marked by some brilliant compositions by the hallowed Tanjore Quartet, Semmanarkoil Shanmugam, Vazhuvoor Ramiah Pillai and others. Ideal reference material and also a perfect choreographic tool.
