Goa on a song

Celebrate the history of the tiny state with a Konkani gig by renowned Goan musicians, including 'The Nightingale' Lorna


When an artiste leaves for his heavenly abode, his work keeps him alive; Chris Perry is one such musician. The legendary composer, an exceptional trumpeter and singer from Goa passed away in 2002 but his disciples have kept the legacy alive. The musical presentation — to uphold Konkani culture and music, by the Goan Outreach Association tonight -- will pay tribute to the genius, through two of his students, Lorna Cordeiro and O’luv Rodriguez. The association is run by a trust, who work for a humanitarian cause, by providing education and medical assistance to underprivileged children. Like Perry, most musicians performing Konkani music suffer due to lack of recognition. The event aspires to change the scenario or make a start, at least.
