Thanks for the write up forwarded of Chris perry,
also one question is not answered by any media of GOA-
as we know now that Lorna is indeed a personality and
the voice which was discovered well by Chris in time
in those days.
At the same time why was Lorna missing during the
years ?? and yes the people missed her voice too.....
what was the missing gap..
Would any one clarify or shed some light into it...???
Can guys...? I believe
If true or untrue the person who lifted her up has
so put her down As the true story should be that she
was banned from singing any public place etc. who
did that...???? It would probably clarify to all and
provide justic to themusic media.. 25 years of shut
down by force.
This is what I have being given by lots of our music
fans.. we cant contest all of the news. good and
bad. but only the good is exposed. we Goans never
want our types to shine high ?

>CHRIS PERRY- THE MUSIC MAGICIAN
>By Isidore Dantas
>
>Chris Perry-the legend who gave a new dimension to
Konkani music left for his heavenly abode on 25th
January 2002,. Although death silenced his life, his
enchanting music still reverberates in the ears of his
connoisseurs. His electrifying music mesmerizes and
carries us to a different world. His attempts at
promoting music to appreciable and saleable levels
have borne fruit.
>He was born at Borda, Margao on 25th November 1928.
He was the second son to Agostinho and Espiciosa
Pereira among nine siblings. He married Lily D�Costa
from Cuncolim and has four sons Miles, Giles, Glenn
and Errol. His real name is Christovam Pereira but he
cut it short to Chris Perry to become the legend of
Konkani music.
>Like many Goans, music was in his blood and music
meant everything to him. His illustrious brother Joe
Perry has already carved a niche by playing alto sax
in Hindi films. He is remembered for the signature
tune to All India Radio, which he has intelligently
composed on drumbeats.
>Chris entered the tiatr scene in the name of Bab
Pinto and went on to stage his own tiatrs- Noxibantlo
Nhovro, Padricho Lob, Vid Mog Kornaranchem. He learnt
to read and write music all by himself. He was at ease
with blowing instruments as saxophone, trumpet and
flute as well as finger instruments like keyboard,
piano and guitar. But trumpet was his forte. He earned
famed as the King of Cha cha cha. His delivery of the
music composition Cherry Pink and the Apple Blossom
White breathlessly on trumpet earned him the sobriquet
as Man with the Golden Trumpet.
>His previous music can be heard on Columbia and HMV
records in which main tiatrist C Alvares, Ophelia,
Mohana, M Boyer� have lent their voices. Further, he
left for Kolkatta, Delhi, and Madras to participate in
playing music in posh hotels.
>He then ventured into Hindi films and served the film
industry for twenty-five years as assistant to Hindi
film music directors. His magic touch can be seen in
many Hindi films more particularly in Kabhi Kabhi,
Trishul�
>He revolutionized the Konkani music scene by
introducing jazz music. He found the hidden talent of
Lorna and exploited the same to bring out the very
best combination for which the Konkani fraternity is
indebted to him.
