Make this Christmas more special with some long-forgotten traditions 25

Posted on November 30, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

‘Holiday season sales’ is no new term to the retail sector, and it is often what makes the difference between a good and a bad fiscal year. As a lot of people rightfully complain, Christmas has become highly commercialized. With all the hassle of going from store to store and standing in never-ending queues, it is easy to forget what all the fuss is about. But gift-giving is actually a very old tradition, and it has not always been like that.

Gift-giving around this time of the year dates back from ancient Rome. Then people used to give each other presents on New Year’s, but they were symbolic gifts, often consisting of vegetables in the honor of fertility goddess Strenia. However, what is more similar to our concept of gift giving today dates back from Victorian times. During that time, the custom became much more festive and socially significant. One of the customs was that each family member was assigned a color, then brought to a room filled with a yarn web. Each of them had to follow their own color through the web to get to the gift. Another practice was to gather around a large bowl full of grain, where they had hidden very small gifts. Each would take a fullspoon of grain, and whatever gift they discovered was theirs to keep.

By the end of the nineteenth century, commercialization had already begun to fade away the idea of the simple, non-materialistic gift giving in lots of countries around the world. Much of the merriment and excitement had been replaced by a brief exchange of bright boxes. But it does not have to be that way. There are people around the globe for whom gift sharing still means something. In Brazil, for instance, gifts are hidden outside the house and kids have to search for them. Sure, it’s warm there and they don’t need to worry about snow.

Although the complaints that Christmas has become highly commercialized do have a point, you may still choose not to give in to consumerism and do your best

The Songs And Dances of Latin America 0

Posted on December 22, 2009 by Jennib And Friends

This is the type of guitar that developed from the earliest forms of fourand five-stringed instruments, reaching its final form in the early nineteenth century. In addition to being the type of guitar used for the solo “classical” repertoire, the Spanish or classical guitar is used for the accompaniment of folk songs, for the songs and dances of Latin America, and for the flamenco music of Spain. Throughout Europe it has long been the favorite accompaniment instrument for love songs and serenades.

Traditionally the sides and back of a flamenco guitar differ in that they’re made of cypress wood, which is distinguishable by its yellow color and lighter weight, but this is not always the case today because some of the great flamenco players prefer hardwood.

Classical guitars usually have a slotted peg head and are strung with nylon strings. Generally they are smaller than acoustic or electric instruments. The neck width is greater than on acoustic or electric guitars to facilitate the intricate left-hand work demanded in classical compositions.

Although the term “acoustic” really applies to any non-amplified guitar, it is commonly used to describe the steel-strung guitar used in country, folk, and blues styles. The steel strings give more volume than nylon, and also have a “brassier” sound.
