MILANA: Kathak, Jazz, North Indian Music, South Indian Percussion

MILANA, an innovative and boundary-defying collaboration, is set to premiere on Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 5:30 PM at Jackson Theater, Ohlone College in Fremont, California.  This groundbreaking production unites North Indian Classical dance and music, South Indian Carnatic and Jazz percussion, and American Jazz piano, forging an unparalleled artistic dialogue that redefines the traditional roles of dancer and musician.

Featuring an all-star ensemble of Labonee Mohanta (Kathak), Rohan Krishnamurthy (Carnatic percussion + Jazz Drum Kit), Colin Hogan (Jazz Piano), and special guest artist Abhisek Mallick (Sitar) from India, MILANA seamlessly dissolves musical boundaries and reimagines the relationship between dancer and musician.
