Jerry Cal sings his solo
Surely one of the best Tiatros of this season is CAZAR.COM
written and directed by the renowned director
and a mighty pillar of Konkani Stage Prince Jacob also an ace comedian who beautified
this Tiatro with his beautiful comedy he superbly and very decently performed
to the satisfaction of the capacity crowd
at Calangute Church Square at 8.00 pm on 22.4.18. It was organized by
the Church under the able leadership of Pe. Vigar Cypriano who is retring from Calanute
very shortly.
Lourdes opening song
As a gift to him for serving the Calangute Church
for the last so many years and bringing about lot of development in Calangute, the
well known son of the soil Jerry Cal rendered a very beautiful solo composed very
beautifully by him only, in showering abundant praises on the Pe. Vigar. From
starting till ending of the solo, the audience was totally glued to the mike to
enjoy not only each and every word of his song but even a coma.
Such was the interesting song it was which according to me was the best
in this Tiatro. I appreciate the kind gesture
of Prince Jacob of giving an important opportunity
to Jerry Cal to showcase his Stage talent. In fact Jerry Cal having two Konkani
Albums to his credit, one is “Calangute” in the form of a CD and the other the recent one “Ugddas M. Boyeracho” a DVD which
are both turned out to be excellent.
rima and Jacinto in one scene
The musical score provided
by the Band Lader Moraes, Mathias and his young son Jr. Mathias, Ancieto and
Rohan was really a great thriller. However,
the sound of the Music was so loud that at moment it was rather difficult to
listen to the voices expressed on the Stage. However, the director should keep
an watchful attention on this defect which proved to be an irritant.
Valency & Jude Gracias another scene
The other
singers excelled in this segment known as “Side Show Songs” were Prince
Jacob himself when he rendered a beautiful song along with his vastly improved partner
and very good comedian Cedrick Pinto thrilled the audience by dressing like
Lamani thereby imitating one of our local politicians whom in this duo put into
shame. The other singers who deserve complments for
singing nice and interesting songs were Michael Jude Gracias and Bonny Alvin on
the contribution of Goan Christians in the promotion of Goan causes, they bring
out in this song how there is a silent genocide on the excellent contribution of
the good work Goan Christians have done even by the Priests the Pinto
revolutionaries. They also indicate in this highly intellectual song how the Goan
crooks and cheats made Dr. Ram Manohar Loia a hero by falsely hoisting him on
Goans as shown in his monument erected at Loia Maidan Margao that he was
speaking there when he was arrested by the portuguese soldiers. In fact, Dr.Loia
was not even allowed to enter the Maidan
since he was arrested
rima & Prince Jacob a scene
In our freedom movement
those Christians who participated were genuine ones to liberate Goa but many
others especially from North Goa were those who wanted to convert Goa into a
Hindu Raj because they thought the word India comes from the word Hindus and as
such India belongs to Hindus only. These idiots they must know that those who first
fought for Goa’s independence from the Portuguese were the Christians from
Candolim under their revolt “Pintos revolution” which was under the leadership
of Priests some of whom were later on arrested by the Portuguese and then Hanged
publicly in Panjim. Even Abade Faria was
part of this revolution. Jude Michael Gracias te composer of this high grade
song deserve highest complments.
Singing duo Bony & Jude
The other song which
was a solo rendered by Agnel de Dabolim
was excellent so too the opening solo of Lourdes. In fact almost all the songs
were good including the two trios one by
all the three ladies namely Valency-Rima-Lourdes and the other by Jose and
company.
Another scene
The major part of the
play was handled excellently by Valency, recently I noticed her growing into
much maturity, her role when she becomes mad was superb, she sings also well
with her sweet voice. Jose rendered a nice solo but he excelled very well in a
very hard role of a goondda. In fact he
created fear even into the hearts of
audience.

trio song
Congratulations to
prince Jacob and Cedrick for dishing out a very decent comedy without any
vulgarity. I hope upcoming comedian Cedrik
will never perform vulgar comedy, vulgar comedy is done by ROSTAD COMEDIANS
who are a burden on Konkani Stage.
