I went to the Embassy of India, Tokyo to see the Indian Drum - Dance Pung-Cholom and Dhol-Dholok Cholom. It started at 7 pm and lasted for about an hour. There were 7 drum dancers and there were two different music. The addmission fee was free of charge.
The first one Pung Cholom lasted nearly for 40 minutes. They not only played the drums but also jumped and danced. They wore white pants with a kind of scarf.
The second one was Dhol Cholom. It is a drum dance performed during spring festival in Manipur State of India. They wore orange color costume. They also played the drum, jumped and danced. The audience also joined with clapping.
Both performances were so impressive. I am glad to see the performances. Thank you very much!
