    GANGA... life as a river
    Arpana Dance Company

    An exciting blend of traditional and contemporary Indian dance. In the first half of the evening, Arpana will present traditional works from its repertoire of 16th to 20th Century compositions, accompanied by a four-piece live musical ensemble. In the second half, it will feature Ganga … life as a river, which layers post-modern choreography atop the classical Indian dance form Bharata Natyam. Against a soundtrack that combines instrumentals, singing and spoken word, dancers in contemporary costumes perform vignettes reminiscent of a river traveling from a young, bubbling brook to the deep, calm waters uniting with the sea. In India, the River Ganga represents both eternal life and a goddess symbolizing feminine power, and so, too, this dance evokes both a river and the stages of women’s lives.
