THE MONTE MUSIC FESTIVAL has been conceived to bring together two great musical traditions that met for the first time in Goa -- Indian and Western.
It is being held for the first time in Goa at the Capela da Nossa Senhora do Monte (Chapel of Our Lady of the Mount) Old Goa, the complete restoration of which was undertaken by Fundacao Oriente. Surrounded by a breath-taking panoramic view of Old Goa, Mandovi River, the islands of Divar and Chorao, Ribandar and the Arabian Sea, the Monte Music Festival will attempt to highlight the highest musical forms produced by these two traditions, namely, Classical Western and Classical Indian.
