Posted on: December 22nd, 2010 Parang Music!!!!
According to Wikipedia, Parang is a popular folk music originating out of Trinidad and Tobago, it is part of the Island’s Hispanic heritage that originated from over 400 years ago during Spanish rule via Venezuela. The word is derived from two Spanish words:’Parranda’, meaning ‘a spree or fête’ and ‘Parar’ meaning ‘to stop’.
In the past, it was traditional for parang serenaders to pay nocturnal visits to the homes of family and friends, where part of the fun was waking the inhabitants of the household from their beds. Today, a new form of parang, soca parang, has emerged. Soca parang is a combination of soca and parang.
