Posted on December 8, by Jodina. The 7th of December in Milan is observed and celebrated as Saint Ambrose Day, the patron saint of the city. Hmmm… sounds pretty special, you might be thinking, and in many ways it is. What most do NOT do is work. This early part of December in Milan is also when the new Opera season kicks off at the famous Teatro alla Scala opera house. And even though it is a big and busy city, Milano still puts on a little sparkle for the holidays.

And as in many other places where Christmas is celebrated, much time preceding December 25 th is dedicated to the hustle and bustle of trolling the shops for treasures, meeting friends and exchanging gifts, and strolling the streets enjoying the holiday decorations, lights, and the feeling of excitement in the crisp winter air. One of my favorite things and memories about this time of year in Milano is the smell of chestnuts being roasted by street vendors, buying them in the paper cones they are sold in, and eating them while strolling through the city center.

What do you enjoy about this season? Love to hear your comments below! Comment below the sign-up form. Posted in Uncategorized 4 Comments. Posted on November 30, by Jodina. Ritornello Volare, oh oh, cantare, oh oh oh oh. Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me.

Chorus Volare, oh oh, sing, oh oh oh oh. But I keep on dreaming in your beautiful eyes That are blue like a sky dotted quilted with stars … Chorus Volare, oh oh sing, oh oh oh oh. I continue to fly happy higher than the sun and even higher as the world slowly disappears in your blue eyes Your voice is a sweet music playing for me … Chorus Volare, oh oh sing, oh oh oh oh.

Doing a bit of digging, I found a Russian proverb with the same essential sense: Ora lo deve tirare su! Now you have to pull it up!

Clap Your Little Hands. How Beautiful is this Hat. In Italy, the older, traditional filastrocche nursery rhymes and songs for children are an endangered species; many of them are not in "official" Italian which is based on the dialects of Tuscany , but in one of the regional dialects.

These dialects, mainly used in the home and in small rural communities, have been handed down orally. But in many regions the use of dialect is declining even within the family, especially among TV-hungry year olds 1 , so the collective memory of these traditional filastrocche and songs in dialect risks fading with it 2. A few scholars have painstakingly and lovingly collected and studied them 3 but most of these collections and studies of traditional rhymes are for interested adults rather than for children 4.

Italian children don't all grow up knowing and loving the same nursery rhymes in the way that most children growing up in an English-speaking environment do. However, many of the filastrocche do exist in more or less similar versions in different dialects and some in other European languages - e. Traditional Italian filastrocche reflect Christian tradition many lullabies are about the Infant Jesus and the holy family , and, more obscurely and symbolically, pre-Christian rites, the Moon, the Tarot, magic, the labyrinth, the spirit of corn, the cycle of life - birth, marriage and death - and of the year - seasons, harvest, Lent, Carnival, etc.

There are many Italian publishers and web sites collecting and publishing traditional filastrocche , proverbs, songs, sayings, poems and prose in different dialects.
