Heritage Jazz

Heritage Jazz has now become a big name across the music firmament, but our heart is where it should be, doing things out of love for Goa’s heritage, music and people. It started off as verandah shows at the majestic family mansion of the Gonsalves family in Campal, and the man behind this is Armando Gonsalves, a passionate pianist, heritage lover, writer, a man deeply involved with education and children, and a man whose raison d’etre is his love for Goa and his children.
Heritage Jazz is an enduring concept, a concept that has brought various exciting possibilities including a new thought for Goa. After all, what are the main elements of Goan life? They are music, the home, heritage and football. Heritage Jazz unites the first three with ease since our events are held in majestic heritage homes, the main one being Gonsalves Mansion that is Armando’s personal residence. And amazingly, we have even managed to fuse football into the scheme of things when we raised funds for the Brasil Futebol Academia via a show with the renowned Brazilian Band Acuri in August 2009.
