A Sacred Thread
A fabulously layered fabric of Kathak dance, narratives and new age music retells the story of two women from the 16th and 18th centuries - Mira and Amrita. One born rich and the other born humble; one wedded to God, the other wedded to nature - both fiercely in love and both pay the price for their beliefs.
A Sacred Thread is performed to new music specially composed by Pandit Birju Maharaj and played live by Yogesh Samsi on tabla, Surjeet Singh on sarangi with vocals by Chandra Chakravarti. Purcell Room at Queen Elizabeth Hall
