We all recall with joy a special story and storyteller from our childhood. This feeling is reawakened with surprise and delight once again when we hear those voices and songs in ourselves.
For centuries, people in all cultures joined together to witness the mysteries and miracles of their lives through telling the tale and hearing the music. Today this magic happens once again when communities come together to share and sing with each other.
