Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.
Music must be seen, and dance must be heard
I've always considered rock 'n' roll, the music and the dancing, an art form.
Dancing is very important to people who play music with a beat. I think that people who don't dance, or who never did dance, don't really understand the beat... I know musicians who don't and never did dance, and they have difficulty communicating.
I feel far more connected to the whole band if I can somehow physically respond... with my body.
I got into rhythmic gymnastics when I was four years old.
We must have song and dance in our lives; we've had it ever since the inception of cinema in India. Our stories are very social-based, very human-based. We are a very emotional nation.
If you look at a dancer in silence, his or her body will be the music. If you turn the music on, that body will become an extension of what you're hearing.
