Odissi Ensemble
Combining dedication to the practice of this classical Indian dance form with a modern sensibility, the ensemble will draw upon their diverse backgrounds to present an evening of solo and group pieces which reflect the broad spectrum of Odissi as an art form. In a programme demonstrating the variety of their art form, the Odissi Ensemble explores the interaction of the spiritual and sensual through the vibrancy and vitality of classical Indian dance.
