To how many people is given the blessing of looking into the mind of a music genius, about what has inspired his creations? Was it a thought process or visual images that spoke to him through melodic phrases? To Gowri Ramnarayan, was given the great good fortune, in her many close interactions with the Carnatic music savant Lalgudi Jayaraman, of delving into the recesses of his mind, to form an impression of the kind of images inspiring some of his compositions. And as a creative person, the temptation to pattern a Bharatanatyam performance based on Lalgudi Jayaraman's creations, re-visualised with the scenarios in the creator's mind while giving birth to these compositions, became over powering. And what better combination could one have, than Sheejith Krishna's fertile choreographic mind, with him and Anjana Anand as the dancing twosome, under Gowri's direction and script, visualising the programme, premiered at Kalakshetra's Rukmini Arangam, Chennai?
