Swinging Symphony | Online Dance Fellowship

This choreography presented as an amalgamation of North and South Indian classical forms ( Kathak and Bharatnatyam), is a story told about sudden changes in human life and nature around, during the global pandemic. The world swings from times when man considered themselves invincible, to a phase where they lose all their might and silently witness nature blossom around. The piece has a hopeful turn at end, depicting how man and nature create a harmonious coexistence, to live with more compassion in the times beyond this pandemic.

Performed by Jayeeta Dutta(Kathak), Prachee Palekar (Kathak), Srividhya Chandramouleeswaran (Bharatnatyam) and Tanvi Siruvuri (Bharatnatyam) in remote collaboration during peak of wave 2 of the pandemic worldwide.

Music by IndianRaga and Mahesh Raghavan (a combination of works Despacito, Journey Home and Harry Potter);
Poetry by Kuldeep Kaur Banerjee.
