Re: [Goanet] Goa... and inland waterways
Hi Sergio, I have sent you 4 sets of zipped mp3 files to your email address. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I have. Yes they include a couple of his compositions. Having said that, all tracks have unique Noel intoductions. Please advise me when you have downloaded them. Thanks.

Re: [Goanet] Goa... and inland waterways
Dear Gabriel ! This is Sergio Flores, son of the late Prof. Noel Flores reaching out to you. I am desperately searching for any old audio-material from my father and stumbled upon a Goanet message, stating that you had some CDs with him performing mandos on the piano. Would this also include his own compositions by any chance ? Even if this is not the case, is there any chance you could provide me with a copy ? This would mean a lot to me. Kind regards from Vienna, Sergio

I tried AIR way back in 2002-2003, and though recordings were made by both Emissora de Goa and AIR, either the tapes have not been archived properly or they have been recycled. The only copy of a concert in 1963 (for Nehru) was apparently zapped by the customs or security X-Ray en-route from Macao to Goa by DHL, inspite of all the warnings on the label that it contained sensitive magnetic material. We had a couple of reel-to-reel tapes at home, but it appears that these inadvertently got relegated to the dustbin in one of the "clean-up operations" undertaken by one of the relatives. The CDs which AT is on about are the commemorative CD which I compiled "Life and Times of Maestro Antonio de Figueiredo" on the occasion of his birth centenary (20 Aug 2003) based on his own interview in Portuguese at the AIR (programa renascença) with Dr. Carmo Azavedo and memories from my cousins, and a couple of articles written by Antonio "Oboe" Noronha and Fernando do Rego. The other CD is a compilation of mandos / tunes played by Noel Flores (piano) and other instrumentalists (some of them my cousins) and singers. If you are interested, please drop me a line by private email giving me your postal address, and I will ensure you get them. Cheers, Gabriel. --- Victor Rangel-Ribeiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My dear Gabriel, > When you so kindly showed Lea and me around > Melbourne not so long ago, > and even entertained us in your own home, it never > occurred to me that you > might have some recordings of performances conducted > by your esteemed > father, Maestro Antonio de Figueiredo.

I would gladly have offered to buy some copies not just for my own use but also to distribute to friends who, like me, never had the good fortune to hear him perform in public. Can you please let me know whether these rare recordings are now or will be at some time commercially available, and what the approximate cost might be?

But how much do we know about such transportation systems on the Amazon, Danube, Ganga, Nile, Rhine, Yangtze and Zambezi rivers to name just a few biggies? Also how much do we know about such systems in use in cities like London, New York, Venice etc. In Goa itself there are a variety of operating models such as ore transportation, river crossing ferries, boat cruises, casinos and floating restaurants. A comprehensive analysis should uncover the promsies and pitfalls of what is being suggested on goanet. Anybody game for it?
[Goanet] Goa... and inland waterways
* G * O * A * N * E * T C * L * A * S * S * I * F * I * E * D * S * To Goa with Love - Three unique Valentine Day packages from EXPRESSIONS Say "I Love You!" in style this year For details, photos and pricing check out: http://www.goa-world.com/expressions/valentines/ In 1994, politicians in Goa looked at 'remedial measures' to improve the State's transport system. They focussed on the need to use Goa's inland waterways to "lessen the burden of road traffic". Till date, nothing much has happened. In past decades, there were launch services between places like Panjim and Sanvordem (with a halt at Ribandar), and another from Panjim to Naroa and Aldona. Studies show that out of a total length of 555 kms of important rivers in Goa, some 360 kms are navigable at present with varying depths. The Mandovi, Zuari rivers and their tributaries are navigable upto 169 kms. Some "more navigable" rivers include Terekhol to Arondem (upto 32 kms), Chapora to Colvale (32 kms), Mandovi (102 kms with branches, like the Madai, Khandepar, Sanquelim, Bicholim/Volvoi, Mapusa, Cumbarjua Canal), Zuari river (upto the Sanvordem bridge, 64 kms and upto Sanguem in high tides), Sal river (upto 18 kms), Talpona river (9 kms), Galgibaga river (5 kms). Even in colinial times, eight motor-launches were run under the Navigacao fluvial. These connected Panjim to Sanvordem (stopping at Ribandar, Old Goa, Cumbarjua, Kundaim, Dongri, Marcaim, Undir, Durbhat, Borim, Rachol, and Sanvordem); Panjim to Volvoi (via Ribandar, Old Goa, Piligao and Surla); Panjim to Aldona (stopping at Borim, Bando, Ecoxim, Pomburpa, Amadi and Calvim); Panjim to Verem and Panjim to Mormugao. "If inland waterways are properly harnessed, they will provide a quick, comfortable and economical transportation facilities for both passengers and cargo traffic," said the "Report of the House Committee on Remedial Measures to Improve Transport System in Goa" (1994).
