Istimosanv Rozachem: A popular Konkani mando
This lovely Goan mando is sung by my brother Gladwyn Gomes and I.
Guitar accompaniment: Gladwyn
The origins of the mando tradition can be traced back to around the mid-nineteenth century. Composed in the twentieth century by tiatrist Champion Alvares (real name: Sebastiao Alvares) of Saligao, Goa, the Konkani mando Istimosanv Rozachem is one of the newer mandos, and almost always the first mando sung at parties or family celebrations when the musically inclined community of Goans breaks into song.
A like or a comment would be much appreciated.
Enjoy!
