Masterclass: Implementation of Riyaz in Bandishes In this Masterclass Dheerendra will be teaching some basic and important but neglected technical aspects of Kathak dance which are very essential to retain this dance form in long term. Dheerendra will be focusing on the technical aspects of Riyaz (practice) in Kathak and its execution through the Bandishes (a fixed, melodic composition in Hindustani vocal or instrumental music). Dheerendra Tiwari Dheerendra Tiwari’s illustrious career has been shaped under the tutelage of the maestro Pt Rajendra Gangani, whose living legacy generations to come will seek inspiration from.

Dheerendra has worked with the great Gurus and leading choreographers of India, including Geetanjali Lal, Aditi Mangaldas, Leela Samson, Saroja Vaidyanathan and Kumudini Lakhia. A recipient of the coveted scholarships from Sahitya Kala Parishad and Kathak Kendra, he has also served as the senior faculty of Bharatiya Kala Kendra, Mandi House, New Delhi. He has worked as a senior repertory member and rehearsal director for Drishtikon Dance Foundation – The Aditi Mangaldas Dance Company and as a rehearsal director with Aakash Odedra Dance Company. His performances for prestigious festivals in India and abroad including the Khajuraho Festival, Kathak Mahotsav, Darbar Festival (London), Edinburgh International Dance Festival (Scotland), and Oz Asia Dance Festival (Australia) brought him wide acclaim as performer. Through his recently formed institution ‘SamDheer Foundation’, he aims to nurture the next generation of dancers wholly dedicated to serving Kathak as their highest destiny.

A story synopsis.... ~Deep in the ancient, untouched heart of the forest lives the green man. There he cares for the trees, and the birds, and the beasts. The lords and ladies in their castles and mansions, and the wealthy merchants in the towns, they know that the green man is just a story to amuse children. Though his image is carved into the very stone of their churches and cathedrals, they do not believe such nonsense. But the country folk, those whose villages and farms lie closest to the edge of the forest, they know. And when the days grow short and bitter and the ground turns hard, they leave out bowls of food as an offering to him~ Karuna Mistry Karuna has over 90 individual poems published in more than 60 anthologies.
