  • Summary

  • Goa has a rich musical culture, and it has come to carry the legacy of Fado, the Portuguese music characterised by mournful tunes and lyrics.

    Join Clyde in conversation with Sonia Shirsat, an eminent singer from Goa, as they share their love for Fado music. They discuss its meaning, and the social, political, and folk influences on its development. What are the stories that Fado music tells? What is Mando, the goan cousin of Fado? How did Fado travel across the world and enter French cinema?

    Tune in to find out, and to listen to some soulful Fado tunes!
