------------------------------------------------------------------------ August 20 - WORLD GOA DAY Celebrating the inclusion of Konkani in the 8th schedule of the Indian Constitution on August 20, 1992
For a list of World Goa Day events see: http://worldgoaday2009.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi Selma, Please do interview him - he has some great stories on 'muzga iscol' and the 'mestris' of yesteryear, which he used to tell me when walking to music practice to Haringey Symphony Orchestra or to his own choir at St. Paul's Woodgreen. I was quite fortunate to have lodgings just a couple of streets away from his residence, way back in 1980. I do have a couple of articles which he sent me ages ago, in the form of letters to me about his experiences with the Goa Symphony orchestra. I could share them with you if you're interested. Cheers, Gabriel. ----- Original Message ---- From: Carvalho <elisabeth_...@yahoo.com> To: estb. 1994!Goa's premiere mailing list <goanet@lists.goanet.org> Sent: Wednesday, 19 August, 2009 11:19:55 PM Subject: Re: [Goanet] Oboe Noronha Dear Gabriel, Oboe was sitting right next to me, as he and his wife are close friends of Eddie Fernandes. He is in excellent condition. He regaled me endless with his wonderful stories of East Africa and the orchestra. One of these days I must interview him and record his stories for posterity.
