A Musical Tribute to Eugene Xavier - Beats Music Troupe

The Beats music troupe will perform on Jan 2nd, 2011 (tentative date) at the Alumni Association hall of Anna University. This music performance is a tribute to the late Pappu Antony Eugene Xavier. Eugene suggested a list of songs when we were exchanging mails for our 2011 program. As a tribute to Eugene, the troupe is planning to play most of the songs suggested by him. Playing at the Alumni association hall was also an idea of Eugene.

Please pass on the info to all of Eugene's well wishers -- Pls be there to talk a few words about late Eugene. RIP.

Missing Beats of Eugene Xavier

It was a misfortune to hear about the demise of Beats music troupe keyboard player Eugene Xavier on Deepavali day. The name Eugene evoked an awe in me. He was a Ph.D in engineering and authored quite a few books. He held very high positions at Infosys and Hexaware.

He was my senior at Anna University, but i never met him during college days. I first saw him in 2009 when CEG music troupe members met for an informal rendezvous at D'Mellos. Eugene organized the music bash and bore all the expenses. He was an enthusiastic and cheerful soul.

All the Beats music troupe members are in shock as Eugene is just 44+. Eugene is survived by his wife and daughter. We pray for his soul to rest in peace. We will surely miss you Eugene at all our future rendezvous.
