FESTIVITIES
And TRADITIONS Frank
Stefano Ruiu
You never it is capitato to listen to the story of the River
carnival from that it had lived it? To me the fate is touched and to feel
some to speak with infinite transport has not cost some hard work. Days
and nights to dance, deafening din, girls and boys from sballo, samba that
it wanted to very say other of the simple one to roteare of flanks and to
ancheggiare. But what more he remembered, the friend in issue, was that
attonato, always figliato continuous sound and from thousand instruments.
Here, a something of the sort, rapportato in scale one to thousands,
happens to Gavoi. In my girovagare for festivities, discovering the
tamburi of the place, I have tried inusuali emotions that have left me
perplexed. Never as then I have perceived it wants to renounce to the
photos and to throw to me to swim in that sea of nostrani sounds. In order
to make carnival to Gavoi it wants only it to us wants to make it, the
rest is all in reduction. A little soot on the features of the face, one
beste de rusticu if there is, otherwise goes well " of all more
", a drum to tracolla, organetto diatonico, triangle and zufolo, then
it knows gan' and to sortire. Today the festivity to Gavoi is the Fat
Thursday, but he is recent what. It is not that the new one dispiacia,
indeed, in the specific case, ago infinitely appeals to because to see an
entire country been involved in the good, with many forestieri in adding,
is not enough normal what. Jobia Lardajola has been one tests invention
also because it has not treaded on the past, if never it has given
splendor to it making it to exit, between the other, for the roads of the
world. Going for order and returning backwards in the time one discovers
that the carnival to Gavoi began to first of the year and ended with the
buio of the last day that preceded Lent. The companies were formed with
extreme nature, who was - there was, and the last one closed the door.
Every group had how much served and began to turn for houses, in variable
date. It was known of the hour of beginning, for the end not was problem.
Everyone brought one mask in face, of rags or skin goat. The master of the
house prechosen, more in order to respect the script that for devoid
confidence, it asked that one of the group guaranteed for all, and what
more it was known, rinunciando to the privacy, raised the sipario. In
order to transfer joy from the road to the inside of a dwelling, it was
that one marks them. The songs and the dances began. The memory of the
young people, of that today conducon the dances, number names and last
names of persons who han handed on the custom. Pear Ladu pipiolu, Ceccio
Piras triangulu, ziu Cadone organetto and Giuseppino Ladu drum. But there
were pure Zizzu Costeri, Peppinu Marches and who knows how many others.
They are they that they have left one official trace, with a lot of
sonorous recordings, to test of deceits. Sos muttos de to carrasecare eran
of obligation in those festosi surfs, with rhyme retroga, specific in zone
of the single Gavoi, but seems that there are connections in the low parts
of the island. " To on carrasecare on pratt' east in knows mesa - to
on carrasecare pes' to nos cumbidare - on pratt' east in knows mesa - to
nos cumbidare hung. " And via with the offer of pilichittos and wine.
The constant was this, with varying that they had second origin to of
places and circumstances. Every group, to its inside, had the attache' to
knows mazzocca de linna. It served in order to discourage who had
intention de to istoccare the tamburi. Balentia to those times was also
this ephemeral test of force: to silence the festanti adversaries ripping
the drum. Between countrymen it ended to sfottò, promising rivincite to
other occasions. If, instead, to dare the enterprise she were people
outside, then it ended to schifio. The carnival undated precise was all
spontaneous, only joy and was involved the old ones and the small, are
males who females. The memory of years sixty remembers a tide of knows
them from dance that they re-united people of all the countries. "
Sun Rosso " and " Buttillone " seems that they were the
myth. The need of festivity so was felt that to repress the ominous facts
were not enough it not even, indeed, the need became requirement in order
to succeed to drive away the onerous anxieties and problems. To the times
of the ransoms that smeared the walls, that they gave to ognun searched a
value in currency for the own killing or capture, to Gavoi was danced, but
in order not to want to think or in order to say who " to us if of
frega ". It was need of living, not to lose the train of the normal
life. Rovistando in attic, Gavoi has uncovered a strange instrument that
is called tumbarro. E' one swollen mannale blister of porcu with air, held
suspended between along stick of cane and one brass rope. The stick, of
devious, has a wood piece. Turning it it acts as from key in order to wrap
the brass rope that, if scoured with a horsehair bow and golostru,
produces a sound from the stamp orients them that, with the tamburi, ago
also beautiful figure. The din today, that it seems to want to ridestare
the life of the fields from the winter torpore, is however driving away
one segment cruento of the carnival then: on mort' and carrasecare. Today
it has become Zizzarrone, a pupazzo that it ends burnt, other thing
regarding the remote custom. Those " was once " it had to that
making with a human being, a poor one that, in order too much need,
rinunciava to the last piece of possessed dignity. Also of having recattu
it accepted every prank. He came masked in despicable way, seated to
somaro and made to turn for all the country where everyone had straight of
all, and it sopportava. One what of the sort happened also to Orgosolo and
Maimone was called, solo that lì was succeeded in to goad it of ugly in
order provoking I pay of blood to the earth that had to give buds. Then,
with coming less than similar " last ", that they had need too
much (mancu badly!), passing is pure the mask leaving the place to the
sound of thousand tamburi that they make to come one wants of dance, that
does not fear comparisons, to the face of the callback of beyond the ocean,
that knows of samba. Not enough or it wants other to us?
