Ananda Shankar Jayant was invited to be the Guest Editor of the 16th edition of Attendance - the only dance annual of India

The 16th edition of Attendance titled Telugu Traditions, looks at the spectrum of classical dance traditions of the Telugu people and is at once a comprehensive academic record and a coffee table book, designed beautifully by Pratima Sagar.

As the Guest Editor, Ananda, has put together and curated a comprehensive narrative that spans Telugu dance traditions through the fading voices of nonagenarian gurus, coursing through the vision of extraordinary performers and teachers across nearly a century, who have written with their ankle bells the history of Telugu Yakshagana, Kuchipudi, Andhra Natyam, Vilasini Natyam and Perini, tracing the warp and weft of Telugu dance traditions
