I had the good fortune to see Yamini Krishnamurti in a dance recital she presented at the Herodeion Theater in Athens (Greece) in June 1984. A very great dancer! I still keep as a souvenir the rose petals that he held and scattered on the stage of the ancient theater.
Great dancers have one thing in common, they look effortless when they dance. In addition to this, Yamini Krishnamurthy has a certain "swag" (for the lack of better word). I am unable to explain as I a have almost no knowledge of dance other than consuming it visually. I wish I was born during her time and watch her live.
“Swag” is the correct term. They don’t make dancers like this anymore. It’s not about technical perfection. It is about joy, personified, erupting on the stage. Manodharma, saatvikaabhinaya in its most pristine form.
@@gaurinayaka bang on.. Glad I could resonate with relatable sensibilities.. aatmanandam is so subtle that is often missed because it lacks sensationalism
It’s so weird because dancers today have much more athletic ability but don’t seem to be dancing with as much feeling. Which I think is much easier sometimes than endless training!
I've watched dozens upon dozens of performances by beloved Yamini Akka. She's a complete dancer - and she controls every inch of stage space the minute she sets foot upon it. To my mind, no other dancer in any other classical Indian dance style matches her. There's joie de vivre par excellence, and a completely immersion in her art. Add to that an incredibly beautiful body line - which is a huge bonus for a dancer. Akka is an excellent singer and does nattuvāngam too (conducting an orchestra with cymbals and enunciating, especially, the nritta or pure dance sections of the dance).
I wish the camera people were trained better. Shooting at random, this one's just cut off Yamini Akka's feet at random. Kuchipudi footwork is exquisite.
Out of the world....par excellence. Yamini Krishnamurthy has been a great gift to India....and unparalleled cultural ambassador of the country. Great respect.
Same item l did at mookambika temple in1994. No perfection in her dancing. When l did it l kept the plate(thalam) at the stage corner and showed much respect while taking with hands and before stepping on it. But l didn't see those things in this artist. From kerala
Depends on the dance...u can pay respect before the start of dance...and the style of Kuchipudi had varied a lot...it was kind of a dance that was used as a bhakthi cult..so old style m8 be this
Rest in peace Yamini ma'am 😢. I came here to see old videos on hearing the news of Ma'am 's sad demise. ❤
Probably one of the best Indian dance videos on UA-cam. Why aren’t there more videos of her?
Unbelievable! So long and elaborate plate section is perfectly done. It looks so easy and natural. Pranam to Great Gurus!

I saw her live around 1981 in Delhi. She was a complete artist. She inhabited her roles in a unique way and with joy and ease. One of the greats.

Incredible. Truly a legend!

So true, they've missed sooo much of footwork ((
This shooting was in early years of DOORDARSHAN. Then the cameramen are novice to know nuances of Indian classical dances.
Even if not looking at her movements, just seeing her face alone sets the climate of the dance, the movements is a plus
Splendid! It is amazing to watch her dancing ‘ bala gopalatarangam’ with her sister Jyothismathi singing.
Very beautiful dance
This is called setting the stage on fire.. Wow what a scintillating performance
🙏🙏🙏
What an energy and attitude!! Beautiful

I love Kuchipudi most of all for its rhythmic steppings particularly.

Ihave learnt tarangan from satyam garu .
Madam you hava changed the dance form of Kuchipudi.
Though dance is immortal dancer must perform under guidence of learned guru we must not add unnece ssaries.
Spell bound!
You can stop dance by mangalam thank you.
Will you please shut up by writing mangalam in your final comment.
Don't believe unnecessaries .gurus never sees you tube

Exactly...that's not the way to pick up the plate ...much respect needs to be shown ...can make out she is too proud and ignored it
