Songs of the Wayfarer is a transcreative work based upon select poems of India’s Nobel Laureate – Rabindranath Tagore. Translations from Bengali to English were created by Jayanta Acharya, original music composed by Mtafiti Imara, and dances choreographed by Anusree Bonnerjee and Cherie Hill. Each step in this collaborative process involved reflections upon the central theme: one who partakes upon a spiritual journey. It is both an ancient and modern theme found in many disciplines including literature, religion, and mythology. The continued global manifestation of the Wayfarer’s story speaks to its importance across time and diverse cultures. These Songs ask questions of what defines us as individuals and as connected humans - an important precursor to understanding our interdependency and social justice. CSUSM Arts & Lectures proudly present this performative journey as a tribute to Indrani & Jayanta Acharya; two lives devoted to sharing Tagore’s monumental works – embodying the best of what makes us human.
