Call of the Flute

Kalpana Dance Theatre is back with a new Odissi performance, Call Of The Flute, featuring choreographer and concert curator Leena Mohanty, with music by Dr. Dheeraj Kumar Mohapatra. Leena, a leading exponent of Odissi dance, and a disciple of Guru Deba Prasa Das, joins us together with Shobita Nagulendran, a dancer at Kalpana Dance Theatre, to share more about the show that not only delves into the ancient tales of Krishna, but also explores the universal desire for connection and transcendence, and which features a cast of 65 performers ranging in age from 4 - 40!
