Interesting repertoire marked Aditi’s performance
The Hindu
Aditi Ramprasad’s nritta and abhinaya was good but she needs to add a dash of lyricism
Two tall lotus lamps on either side of a doorway decorated with flowers added to the ambience at Aditi Ramprasad’s online performance. Titled ‘Hridaya Kamalam’, the focus of the evening’s repertoire was on anahata chakra (heart chakra), the most influential energy centres among the seven chakras, symbolised by a lotus with 12 petals.
Preceded by a brief shlokam, the performance began with a Tisra Alarippu. The various ragas played on the violin and the flute alternately as a refrain to the sollukattus was interesting. A Jathiswaram composed by the Thanjavur Quartet in Chakravaham followed next.
