Paramashiva, or the ‘Supreme Being,’ is seen in many different forms, especially through song and dance. Often referred to as the destroyer or transformer of the Hindu Trinity, Lord Shiva is also one of the most complex and fascinating deities. Sandeep narayan shows us a glimpse of Shiva’s power through the Krithis on this album. They feature both a variety of melodic scales, as well as rhythmic structures between compositions, and within the compositions themselves. The Thillana is traditionally a compositional form seen in Bharathanatyam, and acts not only as a concluding piece for this album, but as an ode to Shiva , the cosmic dancer.
