> Classical Dance Forms
The genesis of the contemporary styles of classical dances can be traced
to the period between 1300-1400 A.D. India offers a number of classical
dance forms, each of which can be traced to different parts of the country.
Each form represents the culture and ethos of a particular region or a
group of people.
Besides these, there are several semi-classical dances that contribute
to the plethora of Indian dances.
Apart from the classical dances, India is particularly rich in
folk idioms. Each area has its own special varieties, be they martial,
seasonal, ritual, sacrificial, celebratory, instructional or talismanic.
It can vary from village to village, but they all share a common heritage
of myths and symbols. Some of the folk forms of India are Chauu dance
of Bihar, Garba of Gujarat and Bhangra of Punjab and Banjara of Andhra
Pradesh.
In India, dance and music pervade all aspects of life and bring colour,
joy and gaiety to a number of festivals and ceremonies. In fact, dance
and music are tied inextricably to festivity of any kind.
