Songs of The Bulbul

‘A tribute to my mother “Kay” … my smiling bulbul who left her cage.’- Aakash Odedra

Bird song is ephemeral–like dance, it exists only in the moment—sung once, then lost to time.

SONGS OF THE BULBUL, a new dance work by Aakash Odedra with choreography by Rani Khanam and music by Rushil Ranjan, is inspired by the ancient Sufi myth of a bulbul captured and held in captivity.

A sensitive, beautiful dialogue between Sufi Kathak, music that seamlessly blends orchestral and Indian Classical tradition, and Islamic Poetry, SONGS OF THE BULBUL invites audiences to witness a transformation transcending physical boundaries towards enlightenment.
