Bravo for your beautiful write-up on the demise of our Tiatrist the late William de Curtorim, may his soul rest in peace.
He gave his life n time for Konkani Stage. He was a great composer and singer using strong Konkani words. When he was singing his political songs against corrupt politicians he was fuming with anger and this was seen on his facial appearance.
His last CD which I heard was a direct "Zupatti" to Parrkar n BJP. For the Tiatro FLORIAN VAZ POILO MARTYR I have taken him to Abu Dhabi about a decade back, in this Tiatro he was a special attraction n with his powerful 3 songs he made Abu Dhabi crowd very happy. One of his songs "Karnatakachim Zaddam Goychim Ranam" was the most beautiful. His artificial moustache was showing his anger when he was singing political songs.
Since last year there was not much of William de Curtorim on Konkani satage n this was felt on Kokanim Stage also. "Devak zai asloli vost amkam mellonam, fokot magtam devan taka sorguinchem raj divpak ani toxench buzvonn tache familik".
Anthony I have no words to admire your talent of writing such obituaries full of history and wisdom. Really you are like an encyclopedia on Tiatro and Tiatrists. Your this write-up indicates your vast knowledge on Tiatro World. You are the only Goan among expatriates showing your high calibre of journalism. Keep it up. William will pray for you from Heaven.
JERRY CAL.
