A Unique Performance by Padma Shri Astad Deboo Featuring Shree Shree Govindaji Nat Sankirtan Artists

Описание: Rhythm Divine is an evocative performance and a unique confluence of contemporary dance and traditional Manipuri Nat Sankirtan, composed and choreographed by Late Padma Shri Astad Deboo, in collaboration with Guru Meihoubam Seityaban Singh.

Bringing together Astad Deboo’s avant-garde movement vocabulary and the spiritual depth of Shree Shree Govindaji Nat Sankirtan, this work is a tribute to rhythm, devotion, and cultural dialogue. It showcases an artistic conversation between two distinct traditions—modern dance and ritualistic performance—while honoring the sacred heritage of Manipuri Vaishnavism.

This collaboration stands as a celebration of India’s rich cultural diversity and is a powerful testament to the creative synergy between masters of their respective art forms.
