Piyal Bhattacharya
A researcher of Natyashastra, Kalamandalam Piyal Bhattacharya, for the last 15 years have been working on the practical reconstruction of Bharata's dance and music tradition of Natyashastraic period.
The main aim behind this research of him is to dig up the long-lost performance tradition of Natyashastra in totality. Thus, a complete repertoire and ensemble was envisioned and constructed as 'MARGA NATYA'.
To reconstruct the musical system of Bharata's music tradition, he went through a long winding road. He learnt Saraswati Veena, Pakhawaj, Pung Achoba, Miravu and now learning Dhrupad and Rudra Veena of Dagar Gharana under Pt. Asit Banerjee. In March 2016 he went to Myanmar to learn traditional Burmese harp, to trace the migration of ancient Indian harp system to Myanmar.
He received Fellowships from Sangeet Natak Akademi, Ministry of Culture India, and was also conferred with prestigious grant for 'Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage of India', from Sangeet Natak Akademi, India.
Of late, in July 2016, he launched his first ever reconstruction of Bharata's Uparupak 'BHAANAK', the Natya presentation of Bharata's tradition.
