Scanno: La Serenate delle Chezette
5 January @ 21:30 - 23:30 CET
La Serenate delle Chezette is busking Scanno style. Through a simple serenade, your reward is a meal and company in the deep dark winter. It takes place on the eve of Epiphany (5th Jan), villagers hang up a sock and sing this traditional folk song called the ‘Chezette’ (begging in dialect) and ‘Canto del fiore’ (a song traditionally sung to your betrothed) under the windows of the girls & women of the town until there is the promise of a delicious dish or ingredients. The next day the singers go and collect the fruits of their serenade and two days later the donors and the singers go to a local restaurant and with much love eat together!
We will do our best to keep this calendar up to date, however in the case of last-minute cancellations due to adverse weather conditions, Covid outbreaks and so forth this may not always be possible. In these cases, you should contact the event organiser for a refund as we are not responsible for the events on the calendar, only compiling them into an easy list.
