Here we are at night. The sun has set and Riolunato is lit only by torches. All the lights "bulbs" are off. A blast from the past.
All night men and boys in the country will run from house to house to sing to all those who want to draw attention to the window with a torch. This event is open to girls of the May Riolunato (Mo). First, it is for the Mayor, who is waiting for them front of the City. So that he will give the permission and the way to the long procession.
Here they come!
After all they are placed in front of the town, you start ...
The first to sing to the Mayor and Alfie, my friend and "gommaio" trust me change the wheels of the car with those thermal snow from one season to another ...
The others are lined up, listening to the song. It 's a real thrill for all the country in suspense ...
The Mayor responds and opens, with your permission, on May ...
A carboy of wine to gladden the hearts and warm the bodies will be engaged throughout the night ...
The procession starts. It 's the time of the home of Pastor ...
... the priest blesses all ...
The people who had come to enjoy these moments and lots and parades through the streets of the country in an orderly way from one house to another ...
The proposed hand is never the same. The text is studied and adjusted annually for each home, person and family, telling the facts of life and history of the people of the country. There is particular attention to all: you should be there to understand the beauty and depth of the event ...
... not only remember the old days, but something that folklore is rooted in a people that sings the awakening of nature after a long, hard, hard and snowy winter. Really beautiful moments that demonstrate the great commitment and the long winter evenings to prepare for this day.
Because next year is planned a few days up here?
