Pung Cholom


It gets its inspiration from nature and seasons.It consists of animal movements like that of a peacock,tiger,elephant,snake,etc.The rhythmic chants consists of chants which are inspired from thunder storms and rain sounds.Also,the vocal sound used here are high pitched,which is very characteristic to Manipuri dance.The costume used here are very divine and gorgeous.It presents dancers playing percussion instruments and metallic instruments while dancing simultaneously.This is again very charactiristic of Manipuri dance and probably has some links with the Japanese percussion- Taiko Drumming.
