Aurora, IL: On S<strong>at</strong>urday, March 10, 2012, the <strong>Cultural</strong> Committee of the Sri Venk<strong>at</strong>eswara Swami (Balaji)<br />
Temple hosted “RANG DE BASANTI - Festival of Colors - A Musical and Dance Extravaganza”. The event<br />

and <strong>at</strong>tendance.<br />
<strong>Holi</strong> is the celebr<strong>at</strong>ion of the end of Winter and the beginning of Spring among Hindus, both in India and<br />
around the world. The SVS Temple chose to have this first-ever (and soon-to-be annual) event <strong>at</strong> the Sri<br />
Veluchamy Auditorium by showcasing premiere talent of children and adults throughout the Chicagoland area.<br />
The <strong>Cultural</strong> Committee of the SVS Temple would like to thank all of the performers th<strong>at</strong> took the time and<br />
effort to prepare for the Program, as well as all of the ticketed audience who brought their enthusiasm and<br />
energy to the festivities.<br />
Each dance brought something special to the stage. The dance performances ranged from traditional harvestfolk<br />
songs, bhar<strong>at</strong>an<strong>at</strong>yam, mini dance-dramas and modern movie-hit medleys, all themed around the change of<br />
season and paying homage the Lord Krishna. The dances were arranged and produced by the following dance<br />
schools around the Chicago area: Payaliya School of Dance, Danceclemenz School of Dance, N<strong>at</strong>araj Dance<br />
Academy, Nritya Geethanjali Dance Academy, Sonia’s Dance Rhythm, Meera Arts.<br />
Interspersed between dance numbers were regional and cinema songs performed by local talent, as well as an<br />
outstanding Tabla Jugalbandi, or “convers<strong>at</strong>ion”, by some young artists in training.<br />
