Workshop Description:
Pandit Chitresh Das is one of the foremost masters of Kathak, classical dance of North India. Kathak is comprised of rapid, percussive footwork with bare feet and wearing four pounds of bells on each ankle, one of the world's most complex rhythm systems with high level improvisation, graceful and expressive hand gestures and storytelling embodying the history and epics of ancient India. One of the few masters in the world who can perform the demanding and thrilling traditional solo, Pandit Das is also breaking new ground through innovation within tradition and collaboration between traditions.
"Das has opened so many new avenues to his art form, its now wonder he is called a phenomenon" Hindustan Times, India
Most recently, Pandit Das' collaboration with Tap dance star Jason Samuels Smith has produced an award winning and critically acclaimed production, India Jazz Suites, which has toured dozens of U.S. cities, twice throughout India and continues to tour the U.S., India and Europe.
This master class is geared towards Kathak and Tap students and will accommodate multiple levels, as Pandit Das makes the class accessible for beginners and challenging for more advanced students.
Jason Samuels Smith will be in attendance and he and Pandit Das will end the class by giving a demonstration of how these two great artists communicate through their deep understanding of their respective traditions.
"The Master Class with Pandit Chitresh Das will be spiritually enlightening and technically challenging for people of all walks of life." Jason Samuels Smith
“Pandit Chitresh Das, 61, and Jason Samuels Smith, 25, not only have rhythm; they are rhythm. They live and breathe rhythm. They got on top, beneath, around and even inside the rhythm and took the audience along in an amazing performance that had the Page Auditorium audience on its feet…[they] jammed together in an intricacy of beats that has to be heard to be believed. Sometimes, they moved so fast that their feet blurred like speeding racecars."
The Herald Sun review of India Jazz Suites, American Dance Festival, June 2006

The site will be administered using a content management system, meaning that CHRP staff can make immediate updates to every page of information. We look forward to keeping our supporters aware of everything that happening, as it's happening.
The site will feature many new great components:
• Tap Forum where tap enthusiasts can discuss ideas, coordinate travel arrangements and ask/answer questions.
• Blog, updated by CHRP staff and guest bloggers that will provide an inside look at everything we do.
• Lots of new media, particularly sound and video.
In conjunction with this redesign, we've also updated our logo (see above). We love the design and look forward to making it a part of CHRP's visible campaign.
The new site has a tentative release date of May 1, so keep checking back.
