| Description |
Salangal is the Tamil name for the ankle bells Indian dancers wear. In a symbolic sense, it represents dance. In this Festival, Salangai brings together some of the finest Indian dance groups in Singapore to present an enchanting evening of classical dances. Both in content and form, these dancers embrace a wide variety of dance traditions spread throughout the Indian sub-continent. These traditions have now found a home in Singapore as well, adding to the rich tapestry of our multi-ethnic cultural heritage. Except for guest choreographer Guru Kalyanasundaram, all the choreographers and dancers are resident in Singapore. |
