HAPPY NEW YEAR BY THE POLYPHONIC CARAVAN!
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Polyphonic Caravan wishes to everyone a good and happy new year, full of traveling, songs, gatherings, real festivals coming deep from our soul! Happy new year to all the polyphonic groups, to the co-travelers, to the -bigger and bigger- community of polyphony! Happy new year to the borderline villages of the polyphony, to the polyphonic spots for young people in the cities! Happy new year to all those who struggle for the present and the future of the polyphonic song with truth, ethos and passion.
 
A few days ago, the big journey of the voices was honored with an international recognition, with its inscription on UNESCO's Register of Good Safeguarding Practices! With this urge, we are entering the new year, the new decade! Without suspending our action at all, overcoming the difficulties of our times, sharing to the wide public the fruits of our 23-years-long course. We are preparing ourselves for the day when we will sing again polyphonic songs as it should be, one next to the other, together with the other one! In improvised celebrations but also in the great celebrations we prepare for 2021, the year with the biggest Caravan!
 
The photo initiating the new year comes from the 2014 Winter Polyphonic Caravan. This is how old lady Olga welcomed us at her village, Parakalamos in Epirus, breaking the pomegranate in front of our feet. Let's have a good year and good journeys! Let's, thus, break the pomegranate!
