Art & Culture Dept. of Goa promotes learning traditional musical instruments
 

Panaji: The art and culture department of Goa has decided to initiate efforts to encourage the youths to learn the art of playing traditional musical instruments like the shennai, trumpet, clarinet or sarangi.

Ashok Parab, Assistant Director, Department of Art and Culture said, “Some of our traditional forms, including traditional musical instruments are on the verge of extinction and our department has decided to provide guidance to the youth and others who are interested.”

The initiative from the department is aimed to provide guidance inclusive of basic or primary knowledge and training in the traditional forms of art and music.

To start with, the department will organise a workshop from July 29 to August 3, to offer training in sarangi, a stringed instrument. Pandit Santosh Mishra will be the expert guide for the workshop, said Parab, while adding that regular training classes will also be soon started.
