Katha Dance Theatre, the Twin Cities premier Kathak dance organization, has collaborated with Robert Robinson Music to create and present an original work entitled ‘Soul to Sole’. With live music this one-of-a-kind performance will blend gospel music, spoken words and classical North Indian dance using a variety of local artists.
This innovative cross-cultural collaborative will include devotional soulful dance and music, dynamic percussive rhythmic footwork compositions and often to narrate thought-provoking poems. There will be powerful dancing, rousing songs, intricate rhythm works and heart wrenching poems.
The creative force includes choreographer dancer Rita Mustaphi and Gospel singer Robert Robinson. Robert is bringing in the mix drum artist Timothy Berry, pianist Joseph Samuel Reeves and spoken word artist Brittany Delaney. Katha Dance Company and singers from Twin Cities Gospel Choir will also perform in this production.
