While on the tour we visited several classrooms. Each classroom was in a separate building on the campus. The students specialize on a particular instrument or skill. We visited about 5 different styles of drumming. It was neat to see and hear the students practicing their art.
Today we visited the Kerala Kalamandalam School of Performing Arts. It is located in Cheruthruruthy Village about a 2 1/2 hour drive form our hotel.
This school was founded in 1930 to help preserve cultural performing arts. It was a fascinating place & we had a personalized tour. There were 3 of us on the tour – Catherine, myself & a woman from Montreal. A small world indeed!
