The sounds of parang is a must during a Trini Christmas. We know the words and sing along. But do you know the history of parang? Los Parranderos de UWI shared with us the story behind the tradition and we got to hear some beautiful music. 🎶🎶 #parang #trinichristmas #knowledge #music #traditions #visittrinidad #sweetsweettrinidad | Tourism Trinidad

It's Parang History Month, and what better way to get a lesson on the history of parang than for an up close, live and musical demonstration of the instruments used to create the popular Christmas music? The band Los Amigos Cantadores both entertained and educated the audience gathered at Fiesta Plaza, MovieTowne Trinidad on Wednesday evening, giving details about the unique sounds of instruments such as the mandolin, guitar and maracas. Khrystal Wilson tells us more in this report. | TTT Live O
