Haridasa Geeta Nrityam has been a dream project of mine for quite some years now. Nrithyodaya is happy to present this recording of a live programme which was staged at Narada Gana Sabha on January 1, 2008. This has been a challenging project where I wanted to visualise the golden voice that was divinely resonating from Swami Haridas Giri, who propagated the Namasankeerthana Sampradaya. I have culled out from his own recording, this 90 minutes programme. I am grateful to Sri R. Krishnaswami, a great devotee of Guruji for having given me about 8 hours of his recordings from which I could compile his music which ranges from strictly Carnatic to Hindustani and even folk. The languages in this DVD include Sanskrit, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, Telugu and Marathi. Hence you have a kaleidoscopic vision of that great voice of Guruji. I devotionally offer this choreography and my performance along with my very dear disciples, the artistes of Nrithyodaya at the lotus feet of Guruji. I am thankful to Swathi Soft Solutions for making this dream project a reality. We humbly offer the royalty of this DVD to GA Trust, which is running the Panduranga Mandir at Thennangur. I am sure the devotees of the Lord and the disciples of Guruji will also enjoy this offering along with us - Dr. Padma Subrahmanyam
