Later the stage was taken over by Joel and he took away the participants into a new phase of learning about the singing and its style. The session continued from 10 am to 5 pm. It was a very interesting and enlightening session with lots of information about the different aspects of music and singing. The participants enjoyed every bit of the Workshop and have surely gained vast knowledge about the things that were unknown to them.

 
Different breathing exercises were taught and practiced. Different types of Ragas of the Indian music were briefed. More importance was given to the Light music which is commonly used for Konkani music. In other words participants just got what they precisely wanted.  In the post lunch session each singer got a chance to exhibit their song and the mentor, Joel along with Mr. Edward Sequeira, a senior Konkani artist, evaluated the positive as well as the negative points in their singing which surely has helped them to perform better in any of the future programs

The feedback received from every individual participant was very positive and have urged the organizers to conduct more of this workshops in the near future. Joel Pereira graciously has done a great Job much above the expectations of the participants. Lunch was served to all present and Certificates of appreciation was awarded to all participants by the MCA President, Harry Lobo.

 

MCA has always thought of giving the best to the enthusiastic Doha Singers and have already shown the International stage of Konkani world that Qatar has star performers taking into consideration the past 2 GVOM’s were the Qatar singers were highly appreciated by the Judges as well as the Gulf audience. MCA will host the next season of Gulf Voice of Mangalore in October 2012.
