Miko the Kitty: Junkanoo без сомнения самый популярный стиль музыки на Багамах, потому что он существовует уже на протяжении многих столетий и является необходимой частью культурного наследия островов. Некоторые считают данное слово происходит от имени освободившегося раба Джона Каноэ, другие же настаивают на версии, что это слово происходит от слова “junk” = старье, рухлядь, хлам – выброшенные каноэ, как материал, использованный для создания музыкальных инструментов для празнования первого фестиваля Junkanoo.
Junkanoo is without a doubt the most popular style of music you’ll hear in the Bahamas, because it’s been around for hundreds of years and is a vital part of the heritage of the islands. Some say the word derives from the name of a freed slave, John Canoe, but others insist that it comes from the word "junk"—the discarded cans and materials used to create instruments for the first Junkanoo celebrations in the 18th century. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/dc/Junkanoo.jpg

Miko the Kitty: The Bahamas are a country in the Atlantic Ocean consisting of more than 3,000 islands, cays and islets. It is a popular tourist destination with a wide variety of hotels and leisure activities. Whether you like a large island with many hotels and activities or you prefer a smaller one with only a few accommodation facilities, the islands of the Bahamas suit the needs of every kind of person.
In addition Bahamian culture is rich and diverse. One of the most significant cultural events of the Bahamas is the Junkanoo festival, the national cultural festival of the Bahamas. It is celebrated during Christmas time with two parades, one on Christmas and the other on the morning of January 1. The event, one that is considered to be in the soul of the Bahamian people, is a big party full of music, costumes and dance.
This and much more await you in the Bahamas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa5uX2TcrRo
