These works represent the peak of Tagore’s creative evolution, particularly in the last decade of his life when his dance-consciousness reached its zenith. This collection includes two music-dramas—\u003cem\u003eTaser Desh\u003c\/em\u003e (interspersed with prose dialogue) and \u003cem\u003eShapmochan\u003c\/em\u003e (with narrator)—as well as four full-bodied dance-dramas: \u003cem\u003eChitrangada\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eShyama\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eChandalika\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eMayar Khela\u003c\/em\u003e (revisited).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dance-dramas are predominantly ‘recitative’ music dramas, where the clear storyline is supported by melodiously articulated dialogues and narratives intertwined with songs. Through this translation, Utpal K. Banerjee captures the essence of Tagore’s original works, adhering closely to the rhythm, metre, and even the internal rhymes of the original Bengali text. This ensures that readers can experience the exquisite poetry and lyrical beauty of Tagore’s works, even in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book allows readers to explore the emotive power of Tagore’s dance-dramas, which blend lyrical dialogues with the movement of dance, shedding light on Tagore’s artistic genius and his dedication to the transformative power of music and dance. It is a must-read for lovers of both literature and dance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Niyogi Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49979198734640,"sku":"Niyogi_9789381523537","price":336.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/niyogi-books-book-default-title-tagore-s-dance-drama-omnibus-41373117284656.jpg?v=1775966655","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/tagores-dance-drama-omnibus-1","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
