Rasaanubhavam - April 26, 2015
The very core of the Sanskrit Natya theory is the creation of "Rasa". Every dramatic presentation was aimed at evoking in the minds of the audience a particular kind of aesthetic experience, which is described as "Rasa". The concept of "Rasa" is the most important and significant contribution of the Indian mind to aesthetics.
Samskriti Foundation presents "Rasaanubhavam" as a part of its "Anubhava" series of educational programs. This unique program features Maragatham Sundaresan(Sanskrit scholar) presenting the various "rasas", Vinodh Gopinath on the mridangam demonstrating "rasas" through instruments, Chitraveena Ravikiran on the vocals expressing "rasas" through song and Sudha Chandrasekar presenting various "rasas" through abhinaya in Bharatanatyam. This will conclude in a one-of-a-kind finale with the artists doing an impromptu collaboration on stage.
