An evening at Kalakshetra




An evening at Kalakshetra, originally uploaded by cheeni.


At a concert by Sikkil Sisters. I can't imagine there are too many places in the world where a 78 year old can perform music professionally.

Kalakshetra is breath taking in its beauty and purpose. The Kathak performance (Murali Mohan & Nandini Mehta) that followed was sheer magic. It didn't lend itself to photography as well, since it was quite dark most of the time for effect, and I didn't want to be the loser with a bright LCD in the audience spoiling it for everyone. However, there's this youtube video of one of the performers. He appears right at the beginning.
