Music for a dance piece by Poernima Gobardhan, with contributions by Vidwan SV Giridhar.

About

In STRĪ, choreographer Poernima Gobardhan shares an indescribable woman with you. The only way to introduce this woman is to name what the woman is not. She is soundless, senseless, formless, odorless, boundless and, above all, infinite. Do you want to meet her? With Bharata Natyam as a starting point, Gobardhan enables you to enter into this encounter with her dancers. A dance performance with an impressive soundscape, penetrating movements and an exceptional interplay between space and dancers.
