Capturing the Quebec Soul: Celebrating December 23 and the Holiday Season

2023-12-23 05:00:00

It is probably not without reason that Beau Dommage, one of the groups that have best captured the Quebec soul in the history of our song since the Quiet Revolution, named its famous Christmas song December 23.

Because the December 23 marks the start of the holiday season.

A shame

It is not yet the start of the banquets, but it is the day which heralds the rejoicings which will leave us much more breathless than restful.

To put it in a simple image, it is the day before Christmas Eve.

The 23rd still belongs to the time of work and friendship, the 24th announces that of the family, which is struggling more and more to find itself today, in a world where it struggles to regain its rights, where it is more often torn apart than we would like.

It’s a time of year that we can’t do without.

For several weeks, we have been hearing Christmas music on the radio and in stores, which reminds us of the Christian origins of our civilization, which reminds us that this holiday is not only one of unbridled consumption.

I am convinced that very few of them really resist the charm of a Midnight, Christians majestic.

On the 24th, we will have the pleasure of celebrating under the sign of tradition. Holiday meals aren’t always the best, but they’re always comforting. They remind us of childhood. They bring memories to consciousness.

Noël

For my part, December 23 is also an opportunity to listen on repeat December 23 A shame. I find there the simplicity of the Quebecers, I find their grimaces and their smiles. I find there their joy of living, and at the same time, their little melancholy.

Happy December 23, dear friends. And above all, Merry Christmas.
