Met my IITian, guitarist friend Rui Lobo the other day in Panjim (at an hour I'm usually asleep) and he was mentioning plans to hold Sunday evening garden performances by youngsters at public spaces. A good idea! At the moment, this bandwidth is simply being wasted.
Incidentally, his students and others also performed at the World Museum Day function on May 18, 2008 at the Museum of Christian Art in Old Goa. It included: * Three short pieces by Pieter Van der Staak, Second Movement from Bach Violin Concerto in A Minor Op 1042, performed by the Agogic Guitar Orchestra of Goa (members: Vinay Jacob, Tsering Sherpa, Vernon De Sa, Joseph De Souza, Rui Lobo and Roque Lazarus). * El Negrito by Lauro Asturias by Albiniz. Vocal Song. By Myron. * Alcaniz by Torroba. By Glenn. Smoke Rising by Ryan. Hymn (Vocal). * Ukranian Dance and Spanish Dance by Nigel, and pop songs by Rocky and Rui. Good going, guys!
