In Greece, the tradition of singing Christmas carols, known as ‘kalandata’, remains vibrant across various regions. These carols, performed by both young and older carolers, narrate seasonal events and praise the host and household. The term ‘kalandata’ is derived from the Latin ‘calenda’, indicating the month’s beginning. Particularly in Thessaly, these carols hold cultural significance, especially when sung by youth accompanied by traditional musical instruments. Musician Christos Kalamoukas highlights the enthusiasm of young people in preserving this cherished custom.
