About Symphony Muscat:
Symphony Muscat is a music-oriented group trying to modernise the Konkani music scene while keeping the essence and spirit of the language intact.
Sachin Joy Lobo - founder, shares, "It all began with a dream of creating a group of my own where we could change the face of Konkani music and after the discussion with his bestie Triven Goveas – leading music director, the new group was born. In December 2019 the group was launched by the name 'Symphony' which translates to an 'elaborate musical composition which relates to the sound of an Orchestra!'. My good friend and choir led by a seasoned and trained vocalist Renita D’souza joined the team. Rolson Cardoza a professional cinematographer.
Our first original launch was ‘Khoro mog Khara’ released on February 14, a song of togetherness.
"The second original was ‘Avoiponaa’ released on May 4, a tribute to motherhood. Both Konkani originals were widely acknowledged and well appreciated by all viewers and listeners around the globe as it was the first step towards our originals and noticeably recognized by the entire Konkani and non-Konkani speaking individuals.
"Symphony Muscat has designed our own studios and produced our original tracks and songs. We have been listening to music on love and betrayal but we wanted Konkani music to reach out to all genres our listeners and other musical platforms world over.
" Our dream is to change the view of Konkani music without changing the essence of it."
