The Language of Dance

Album Description:

Bharatanatyam is a very popular dance form in South India, and it is the oldest of all of India's classical dance forms. It is known for its grace, purity, tenderness, and the staturesque and sculpturesque nature of the poses. Because the performers' movements resemble the movements of a dancing flame, it is often called the "fire dance."
