Kathak by Anurag Verma

Описание: Ms. Anurag Verma was trained in the intricacies of Jaipur Gharaana of Kathak dance at Kathak Kendra,The National Institute of Kathak Dance in New Delhi. A number of performances in India and abroad have established her quaint beauty of style as well as emotive intensity.
A keen interest in and exploration of the Rajasthani roots and character of the Jaipur tradition of Kathak led her to the choreography of Sampravaahi, her brainchild. Through this ensemble of Manganiar Music and Jaipur Kathak traditions, two complimentary art streams from Rajasthan, Anurag has, at the same time, endeavoured to present the treasure of Manganiar music, laden rich and decorated with the classicality of Kathak, blending subtle and evocative dancing with the poetry and varied themes like valour, festivals, devotion, the beauteous, etc. of traditional Manganiar songs, while providing a rich musical base for Kathak presentation.
One of the senior most disciples of Pt. Rajendra Gangani, Anurag has been teaching her dance form since 1998. She has taught at Sangeet Bharti and at Shri Ram Bhartiya Kala Kendra in New Delhi, and is, at present, teaching in Jaipur Kathak Kendra, Jaipur. She has also worked briefly in the Dance Section of Sangeet Natak Akademi, New Delhi. She was honoured by the Rajasthan Sangeet Natak Akademi with its first Yuva Puraskar in July 2001.
