ICG Newsletter – “Goa Dialogues” FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION ONLY An ISO 9001:2008 Certified Organisation Volume IV, Issue III Newsletter July - September, 2013 The rain - soaked ramp to the Library DIRECTOR ’S MESSAGE Dear Friends, Greetings! As I am writing this, the rains seem to have bid us good bye finally! July this year, was by far the wettest month, not a single day went by when there was no rain. Yet we continued relentlessly with our work and programmes all through the monsoons. As you will see in the Newsletter, we have given you again a complete range from seminars to workshops, to book readings, lectures and quizzes. An evening tea with some members resulted in a coffee demonstration session, which was very well attended. Apart from seminars and debates, it seems, we have a large audience for interesting programmes like these too. In July, we had elections for a new President of the Centre. The members of the Board elect the President, from amongst the life trustees for a term of five years. Mr. Yatin Kakodkar was unanimously elected as President and Mr. Dattaraj Salgaocar as Vice President. We bid a sad farewell to Mr. Pratap Singh Rane who was President for two consecutive terms. Mr. Kakodkar and Mr. Salgaocar, are both actively involved in the running of the Centre and like to keep abreast of all activities which are happening here. We welcome them and wish them both a happy and successful tenure. As the months go by, we are getting closer to our grand annual event-the Goa Arts and Literary Festival. Try not to miss it because we have a super line up of writers, poets, artists and performances for you. Keep a tab by visiting its dedicated website (www.goaartlitfest.com) and block your dates in December, the 5th to the 8th. This time our major attraction will be Assam - we will be showcasing their literature, art and music - so be sure to be here to catch all the excitement! Sharing a light moment with Lord Meghnad Desai and The Honourable Governor, Shri Bharat Vir Wanchoo... After the super successful first Members Night, we are planning another one in December - will get back to all members with possible dates - but you can also give your suggestions - any date between 10th to 20th should suit most, I think. Look forward to seeing you all here in large numbers. Wishing you all health and happiness as always. Nandini Sahai.

He observed that the present decline was due to a crisis of governance and bad economics. Comparing the behaviour of elected representatives in India and UK, he said, in India there is little freedom for backbenchers to deviate from the command of the leaders, as compared to House of Commons in the UK where every individual has their own voice, irrespective of loyalties.

Using theories of creolization, archival and field research in Goa, and an understanding of quadrille dancing as a social and memorial act, this article presents the mando as a peninsular, Indic, creolized quadrille. It thus offers the first systematic examination of the mando as a nineteenth-century social dance created through * This article is based on fieldwork in Goa (field visits made in September , December , June ), as well as multiple field visits to Cape Verde, Brazil, Mozambique, Angola, and Lisbon (–), which have enabled me to comprehend music and dance across the Portuguese-speaking world. I have also drawn on fieldwork on the quadrille in the Indian Ocean (Mauritius, Seychelles, and Réunion, October– November ). All research fieldwork (except that in Angola) was done through ERC Advanced Grant funding.

  • Review of the Ketevanworld Sacred Music Festival at Old Goa Repositioning of Goa’S Culture Through Music
    Review of the KetevanWorld Sacred Music Festival at Old Goa www.ketevanmusicfestival.com Repositioning of Goa’s Culture through Music The 10 days Ketevan Music Festival just came to an end as we still relish in the glory of this magnificent experience. I think everyone was touched in some or the other way by the music, the people, the sites, the atmosphere... whatever. Some of the associates and musicians mentioned it was a life transforming experience, more than the ordinary. Utsav Lal the piano prodigy with his immense International experience said, he would come next time again, even as visitor, no matter if he performs or not - such was the impact of the experience. Similar comments we heard from Debashish Rehearsals at the University... Bhattacharya, Rakesh Chourasia and more so from the musicians from Europe. Preparations at the St Augustine Ruins with the Choir... Most surprising however was the fact that at the second weekend all concerts were filled with Goan audiences. This was not expected as it is unusual. It may just be the case that this festival touched a string of the soul of this people. Something had come alive, the press published some 50 articles on the festival, unheard in the realms of classical music in India. We do hope that this experience can be replicated in years to come - similar, however not the same. With new places, formation, people, musicians, motto and an opening up to a greater dimension which fits into this present time of history and geography, we will now look beyond the moment as a still image and gauge of what is yet to come.

  • From the Perspective of Musicians in Goa: How Has Tourism Changed Music Culture?
    Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Management, ISSN 2328-2169 September 2014, Vol. 2, No. 9, 343-356, doi: 10.17265/2328-2169/2014.09.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING From the Perspective of Musicians in Goa: How Has Tourism Changed Music Culture? Ranjeeta Basu, Mtafiti Imara California State University San Marcos, California, USA The objective of this paper is to assess the impact of tourism on the local music culture in Goa from the perspective of musicians. We consider musicians to be one of the principal, yet often understated agents of cultural change. Musicians are both economic and cultural actors. In the economic space, they participate in the labor market of the tourism industry by performing at local restaurants, hotels, cruises, and other tourist venues, and they make changes to their music in the cultural space by responding to tastes and preferences of tourists. This research is an interdisciplinary study of the nexus point among these overlapping spaces in order to understand how musicians have been affected by and have responded to tourism, which may in turn change the collective identity of the community. It is an exploration of relationships among cultural change, power, and identity. Our findings suggest that tourism in Goa has undoubtedly raised incomes of musicians but not necessarily their well-being. Tourism has also significantly changed music culture in Goa. Keywords: interdisciplinarity, artifact, performance practice, aesthetics, spiritual significance, well-being, Goa Introduction This paper focuses on the relationship between tourism and music culture in Goa. Although the central government has promoted tourism in Goa since the 1970s, it was not until 2001 that the state government of Goa formally adopted the Goa Tourism Master Plan (Goa Department of Tourism, 2001), which focused on tourism as a primary factor in its development strategy.

    Chairman CII Goa State Council Dear Young Indians, I am proud to witness the transition in Young Indians – Goa Chapter over the years and the tremendous potential it has gained, wherein this vibrant chapter is poised to be one of the leading Chapters in the country. As the Chairman of the CII Goa Council I have experienced a strong sense of enthusiasm and camaraderie amongst the Yi Goa Chapter Members and the passion they possess towards the successful completion of activities entrusted. I take this opportunity to extend my deepest appreciation to Mr Nitin Desai and the entire team of office bearers, not forgetting all the Past Chapter Chairs for passionately fulfilling their roles and responsibilities towards Nation building... I understand Yi under his able leadership has initiated several unique initiatives during the year and sincerely hope the same continues…. In my tenure as the Chairman of CII Goa State Council for the year 2015-16, I have had the privilege of working and closely witnessing the activities of the Yi Goa Chapter members with a great deal of keenness & admiration. It was yet another year of perfect synergy between CII and Yi working closely together to bring out activities and unique initiatives. I believe that Yi could play a major role to form a more vibrant platform to generate greater involvement amongst the Goan youth and thus spearhead various initiatives at the grassroots levels, in close collaboration with the Government, Industry & the Society at large. In my opinion, Yi should also assist the stakeholders in promoting activities for an inclusive, sustainable and developed state in the future.

  • Indiais About Standing Tall
    YOUNG INDIA IS ABOUT STANDING TALL Yi Annual Report for 2011 - 2012 Young India is about YOUNG Standing Tall When a person thinks of India, the image that instantly appears is perhaps that of little man who inspired a nation to win its independence in an ingenious and non-violent manner. Non-violent struggle is one of the most valuable contributions of India to the world. The world has drawn inspiration and strength from the Indian experience. INDIA This is by no means this nation’s only contribution. From mathematics to medicine to astronomy, architecture, irrigation, agricultural practices and the arts, ancient India has set its stamp of excellence. The wisdom that bloomed in this land sends out its fragrance even today. Because Young India believes that it can and that it will. While young Indians have recognized that they are the torchbearers of a great history and civilization, they have pledged to be worthy of that great heritage and are themselves successfully working towards making the world a better place. From creating amazing businesses to definitive contribution to arts, politics, medicine, technology, sports and a host of other disciplines, the young Indian is the symbol of a new resurgent India that is taking its rightful place in the comity of nations. It is to these torchbearers and trailblazers that we dedicate this report. YOUNG INDIANS – ANNUAL REPORT 2011 Photo: Thatcher Cook for Mercy Corps.
