The Sabre Dance is a movement in the final act of Aram Khachaturian's ballet Gayane, completed in 1942. It evokes a whirling war dance in a Kurdish dance, where the dancers display their skill with sabres (swords). Due to its exceptionally exciting rhythm, the Sabre Dance established a place for itself in common concert practice, leading also to various adaptations in popular music. (Wikipedia) |

Karana is a reconstructed style of classical Indian dance. Karana is a (Sanskrit) verbal noun, meaning 'doing.' The style was reconstructed by Padma Subrahmanyam and others since the 1960s, from 108 brief movement phrases utilizing specific leg, hip, body, and arm movements accompanied by hasta mudras described in the Natya Shastra, and from depictions of the movements in sculpture in five South Indian temples, notably the Chidambaram temple which contains depictions of the full set.
