Krishna instead spends the night with Chandravali he remembers his promise to Radha the next morning and tries to come back to meet her. In despair she decides she doesn't want to see him anymore and avoids seeing anything black that reminds of him. In the chosen narrative from Baul tradition, Radha prepares to receive Krishna but the night passes and He doesn't come. Stories of Radha and Krishna have been sung since 10th century in Bengal invoking unconditional love. Paraspar - The name of the presentation interestingly included the initial letters of both artists' names - Parvathy Baul and Parwati Dutta who came together in the energised artistic dialogue. Her gentle and sublime dance moves punctuated by tinkling sounds of the nupura along with her singing on ektara created a mystic aura that left the audience immersed in the music. Here, devotee is asking Kali to let go her fierce appearance, and stand in tribhanga like Krishna with Radha beside her essentially praying to mother Kaali to take the bhava of Krishna. Her next song about Kaali Krishna was a rare imaginative piece. Traversing the physical space and the sound space, Parvathy immersed one and all in her divine submission. It spoke about sadhak's journey to the city of joy (anand), which is above physical mind and physical body, yet within this body. I take all those accusations as ornaments, while I rest only in you." The following song was about Ananda. The devotee says to Krishna, "While the whole world praises you, it accuses me of loving you. In the next part, Parvathy Baul entered with her ektara and duggi singing with complete surrender of devotee to Krishna as Guru. The Odissi performance by Parwati Dutta concluded with a soulful rendition to Bengali song by Tagore on the eternal melody of flute laced with a lyrical Krishna Tandav that showcased the omnipresent Krishna. The lord is evoked with a feeling of agony and anger. This invocation of lord Jagannath as a snake began with depiction of a story where a bhakta is bitten by the snake in the temple premises. Sarpa Janana was a rare piece composed by Parwati Dutta which is a 'Ninda stuti' by Kavisurya Baladev Rath. The sancharis unfolded many layers and narratives along the central line. Dutta portrayed the virahotkanthita nayika through her contained yet intense abhinaya. This was followed by an involved abhinaya to an ashtapadi "Pashyati dishi dishi. The program was in three parts the first part had Odissi performance by Parwati Dutta, second part was Baul Sangeet by Parvathy Baul and the third brought both artists together in an artistic dialogue.īeginning with an imaginative Jagannath Ashtakam in praise of Lord Jagannath, one of the forms of Krishna, Parwati Dutta moved on to Dashavatar showing the 10 incarnations of Lord Krishna by exploring the stage interestingly assigning different zones to different characters and avataras. This mutual dialogue of the two traditions through the two artists brought forth the pious and sacred stream of bhakti and submission. Odissi considered one of the oldest classical dances of India with its first reference in Bharatamuni's Natyashastra as 'Odra-Magadhi', was a dance offering in the temples of the medieval period. We know that the Bauls are mystic minstrels (Muslim Sufis and Hindu Vaishnavs) from the Bengal region, who traveled and sang in search of the internal ideal. The artistes dwelt in their own spaces while engaging in a subtle dialogue within, amongst them and beyond.
