GAVANA : Goan Cultural Group performs at Radisson Blu Resort Goa

GAVANA : Goan Cultural Group performs at Radisson Blu Resort Goa


INSPITE OS APPREHENSIONS OF STAGE AND SOUND GAVANA RENDERS A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE at the opening of RADISSON BLU ...though short and sweet the harmony in voices and instrumentalization took the evening to greater heights.


Their choral rendition of GOA GOA GOA a composition by their Musical Director Fr. Tomas d"Aquino Sequeira, followed by the traditional mando ZONELAR BOISUN and the ever so popular DULPODS, which were sung as well as danced. The flawless rendition had many in the audience singing along and in raptures over the PANO BAJU OR BAS TODOP. The traditional and authentic mando attire [many of which are age old family heirlooms, safely stored in ancestral baus (camphor chests)]. 
As all good things must come to an end the cultural aspect of the evening closed with the stirring rendition of ADEUS KORCHO VELLU PAULO.

  1. Thanks for posting this.... so much!!! I've been hunting for the original Gavana recording (their early recordings from 1980's-1990's) with Talula Gama and Milucha Coutinho on the group. Any idea where I can find these recording?
