Song/Music recommendations PLEASE

Post by natyasri »

Hello all,
I need a few suggestions for the following.
1) a music/ song suitable for a jugalbandi or group dance by Mohiniattam, Bharatanatyam, Kathak and Kuchipudi. I already know of charishnu and Dheem ta na nana. Want something else.
2) Need a music/song for jugalbandi (Decent and good) between break dance/modern dance and classical dance
3) Some recommendations for beginner kids of classical to do a performance.
Thank you

Have you considered kRshNa nI bEganE bArO? I know that it has been choreographed in kathak (by Smt. Shashwati Sen) and kucipuDi before.
But IMO, if you want to showcase the contrasts between the styles, a piece with nRtta is important.

Look at the tracks from groups like Mynta. (http://www.mynta.net/)

How about using gItams, like lambOdara lakumikara, varavINA etc.? Many beginners also learn music and they are usually very familar with them.
