About the Contributors

José Pereira (1931) is Professor Emeritus of Theology of Fordham University, New York, where he lectured on History of Religions. He has taught and done research in various academic institutions in Lisbon, London and Varanasi, and has published 24 books and 145 articles on theology, history of art and architecture, and on Goan and Konkani culture, language, literature and music.

Micael Martins (1914-1999), Goa's outstanding composer of classical music, first studied music at his village parish school, and then in Bombay with renowned music teachers. He performed for various societies in Bombay and Delhi, and led orchestras of films in Bombay. In 1933, he began collecting traditional Goan songs, art and folk, and collaborated with José Pereira in recording Konkani songs from 1954, compiling as many as 11,000 numbers. Martins incorporated several motifs from traditional Goan Song into his classical musical compositions.

António da Costa (1943) is a priest, psychotherapist, and musician. He received his musical training in Goa, and Bombay, and in the USA at the prestigious Julliard School of Music and Columbia University. Inspired by his parents love for traditional Goan music, he began his work for its preservation from the age of 16 and broadcast over Radio Goa (later All India Radio) for several years with the assistance of choral groups he himself founded.
