Centered – Open Class – 5:35

Centered was commissioned for Keller High School in Keller, Texas for their 2018 NTCA season (3rd place – Scholastic Open). Based on the music of Bollywood and the art of Konnakol, Centered is designed to create an exciting story arc that incorporates the beauty and complexity of Indian culture and South Indian Carnatic Music.

The show was designed with upper-open class skills in both the front ensemble and battery.
