DVD and booklet developed by PRSSV (Pandit Ram Sahai Sangit Vidyalaya) in partnership with the V&A and Horniman Museum with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The DVD aims to enhance family and school vistis to both museums and encourage understanding of Indian music and dance. The DVD provides an introduction to the trail, featuring family tours led by trained volunteer guides, and specially commissioned dance and music recitals by PRSSV affiliated artists as well as student performances at both museums. The DVD was developed with help from curators Nick Barnard (V&A) and Margaret Birley (Horniman Museum).
