The Hindustani Tarana is often a staple item in a Kathak dancer’s repertoire. This item is a technical piece showcasing the pure dance elements of Kathak, including graceful body movements, complex percussive footwork, and powerful pirouettes. The vocals consist of syllables based on Persian and Arabic phonemes, and the dancers’ poise and elegance are emphasized throughout.
