If stepping into the heart of a Goan Portuguese home, savouring traditional cuisine made only in local households, watching intricate traditional dances, and listening to the resonating strains of Fado is an exciting prospect for you, Sounds From Goa is your golden ticket into this rich cultural mosaic.
The Heritage Home Concerts were designed as a bridge between the past and the present, a way to preserve and promote Goa's traditional music and folklore. This immersive, two-and-a-half-hour experience is open to everyone—be it tourists, corporates, discerning travellers, or locals. The aim is to offer a tantalizing glimpse into Goa's melodic music, rhythmic dance, tantalizing cuisine, and the Indo-Portuguese heritage that makes Goa so unique. But it doesn't stop at merely witnessing these cultural aspects; Sounds From Goa invites you to touch, feel, and truly experience the authentic sounds that define Goa.
The journey commences with a leisurely stroll around a traditional Portuguese mansion, where you can soak up the architectural styles and history. Following this, your taste buds are in for a treat with an array of Goan and Portuguese sweet and savoury snacks and beverages, each accompanied by a tale of its origin and lesser-known details. The grand finale is the concert, where the sounds of Mando, Dulpods, Dekhni, and Fado reverberate through the air, enhanced by dancers dressed in traditional costumes, swaying to the rhythm of local beats.
The Sounds From Goa team is deeply committed to celebrating local culture and promoting local talent. The team includes live performers from Entre Nos, traditional dancers from the quaint village of Curtorim, and cuisine partners from The Goan Kitchen, among other passionate artists and creators. So, don't let this opportunity slip by. Be part of this cozy, unforgettable evening, and let Sounds From Goa whisk you away on a journey of cultural discovery and celebration.
