THE “FESTA”, THE “LAPINHA” AND THE TRADITIONAL
CHRISTMAS CRIBS
The “Festa” is a local expression that refers to the approaching
of the Christmas season! It’s the time when all the preparations to
live one of the most significant festivities of the year are finished
and one of the periods most celebrated by locals. Through the
streets wonder new colours and aromas and people’s movement
intensifies, while around the archipelago everyone relives the
Madeiran traditions.
The traditional “Lapinha”,
greatest symbol of the Madeiran
“Festa” may be seen in almost
every
corner,
sometimes
associated and featuring either
ancient or modern Christmas
cribs.
Whether in Funchal or in any
other locality, it’s possible to find
an endless number of “Lapinhas”
and Christmas cribs. Beyond the
traditional entrainment during
this period in downtown Funchal,
mainly at Avenida Arriaga, there
also are many exhibitions worth
attending until the end of January
2013.
The Madeira Ethnographic
Museum, in Ribeira Brava, the
Madeira Regional Archives, in
partnership with the Madeira’s
Regional Public Library, and
the House-Museum Frederico
de Freitas, in Funchal, suggest
quite interesting and different
ways of celebrating this season,
combining
traditional
and
contemporary.
Surely, good reasons to go
around and carry on living and
celebrating our traditionally
Madeiran “Festa”.

ARTUR PIZARRO PLAYS THE BECHSTEIN PIANO
The Bechstein grand piano, property
of the Regional Department for Cultural
Affairs (DRAC), was built in February
1966 and used to belong to the Records
Company Valentim de Carvalho, in
Lisbon. It was frequently hired for
concerts and recordings.
It’s a piano of great historical
importance in Portugal, considering
that several recordings of Beethoven’s
sonatas made by Sequeira Costa were performed in this piano,
and in which, Artur Pizarro also played while it was still in Lisbon.
In Madeira and before its “settling down” at the Municipal Theatre
Baltazar Dias, the instrument spent some years in Madeira Casino
Auditorium, being unfortunately object of an “amateur recovery”
after a flood.
Finally, through the initiative and owing it to the good offices
of Mr. Artur Pizarro, the Bechstein was entirely restored in a
specialized company, in England, a process that DRAC entrusted
to the Associação Amigos do Conservatório de Música da Madeira
to follow-up and monitor.
Recently, the Bechstein returned to Madeira and is currently
going through a process of climate adaptation.
Its opening concert is scheduled for January 27 at the
Municipal Theatre Baltazar Dias, where the magical hands of its
“godfather”, Artur Pizarro, will play a specific programme and
introduce to the audience the best qualities of this instrument.
So, for the first time and from now on, the Region will have
available two concert pianos in improved conditions, a fact that
will certainly cover an extensive range of possibilities in terms of
musical programming in the Region.

“A HONEY-CAKE FOR CUSCA”
The TEF theater company of Funchal opens at the SantoAntónio movie theatre another play addressed to the younger
ones.
Associating the Christmas holiday season to one of the most
traditional delicacies of the period in Madeira, TEF presents the
play “A Honey-cake for Cusca”, a funny story about a greedy
and hungry elf who, on Christmas Eve, goes to a friend’s house,
Madalena, to satisfy his appetite. But, when he arrives, Madalena
is very sad because her mother won’t be able to arrive on time
for the Christmas meal. Cusca together with his friend Fantocha
decide to bake a honey cake to cheer up Madalena.
Here begins a great adventure, with some other friends, like
Luquinha, Belfino (the Christmas angel) and the beekeeper Elf,
among other fantastic characters, who decide to seek for various
children´s area
ingredients to bake the so tasty and delicious honey-cake.
