Sung in chorus and without the use of musical instruments<\/b>, by groups of men and women, the Alentejo Cante is essentially a popular manifestation that took place in the context of work in the fields or at celebrations.<\/p>

The origin of the Alentejo Cante is far from being determined<\/b>. It is hypothesized to have an Arab origin. Others suggest it is Sephardic. Some voices claim that the singing is pre-Roman and dates back to the Bronze Age. Or Byzantine. Or even that it has origins in religious chants.<\/p>

The lyrics of the Alentejo Cante explore traditional themes such as rural life, nature, love, motherhood, or religion, and also address themes related to cultural and social contexts.<\/p>

The transmission between the older and younger members occurs mainly during the rehearsals of the choral groups.<\/p>

The Alentejo Cante embodies a strong sense of identity and belonging<\/b>. It reinforces dialogue between different generations, genders, and origins, thus contributing to social cohesion.<\/p>

It has been an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO<\/b> since 2014.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
