Singing during the dinner
The evening before the Palio race, after the main trial called “Prova Generale”, each Contrada racing the Palio organises a dinner on the streets of each territory. Happiness is linked to the chance of your winning the race. Stronger the horse and the jockey, louder the cantos. Joy surrounds these fantastic parties on the streets.
As children, “contradaioli” have heard and, as a consequence, learnt, the popular songs.

في الأمسية التي تسبق سباق باليو وبعد الاختبار المعروف باسم بروفا جينيرالي أي الاختبار الأساسي، تقوم كل مقاطعة مشارِكة في سباق باليو بتنظيم عشاء في شوارعها. وترتبط السعادة باحتمال فرصة الفوز في السباق. فكلما كان الخيل والفارس قويين ازدادت الحماسة وصدحت الأغاني وغمرت السعادة قلوب الناس في تلك الحفلات الرائعة التي تُقام في الشوارع.
منذ صغرهم، يستمع سكان المقاطعات إلى الأغاني الشعبية ويتعلّمونها.
