A book on the nostalgic Goan music of the yesteryears... (for sale in Goa and Bombay)

[Frederick Noronha]

When Joaquim Correia's book on Goan music came out in May 2018, everyone wanted to know if A Última Dança em Goa was available in Goa itself, and whether it was in English. Well, limited copies of the English version are now available in Goa (prebook via 9822122436, Saligao) and Bombay (9867074769) at a special rate if you pick it up asap.

This is what this interesting book contains: Once Upon A Time in Goa: Music and Dance ina Charming Region and its Diaspora
