world rock and roll day

The birthplace of rock and roll is considered to be the United States of America. It appeared in the mid-fifties of the last century. And the first performer of rock and roll (according to most researchers) was american singer Elvis Presley, who dedicated this musical genre most life. A new movement in the field of music arose absolutely spontaneously, in one of the studios in the town of Memphis, where Presley and the band recorded new album. The hurricane rhythm of rock and roll spread like lightning to all clubs in America.

Today, for many, rock and roll is not just a peculiar trend in music, but also original dance, whose movements we can easily remember from some films of the 80s (for example, the film "Back to the Future"). One can also safely “blame” Bill Haley for spreading the mass popularity of rock and roll. It was he who in the early 1950s introduced his own dance-music slang based on a mixture of country, gospel, jazz and boogie-woogie elements. Several of his singles, recorded in 1954, played a key role in spreading the new musical movement. Until that time, rock 'n' roll was just a little-known experiment that existed at the local radio station.

"Rock and roll frenzy" extremely quickly swept the whole of America, European countries as well as the Soviet Union. Currently, rock and roll is rightly ranked among the classics, and, as you know, the classics are immortal.

Upon returning home, he was caught by the followers of the schismatics, beaten with stones and clubs, and then thrown into a quagmire. Soon the body of the martyr was taken out of the swamp and buried with all honors. According to legend, one of the attackers on Hypatia was a woman. After the incident, she lost her mind, but, having come to the grave of the murdered and repented, the woman received healing. Many miracles appeared at the tomb of the saint.

In Russia, Hypatia was prayed for an addition to the family or getting rid of infertility. The saint also patronized women in childbirth, helping to calm the bleeding and quickly restore childbearing function. They also asked him to expel evil spirits, which, according to legend, on that day began to rage and spoil the mood at home. In some places this holiday was called Fire. Today, women celebrating their birthday had to carry smoldering coals to the ground to light a fire. It was believed that such a rite helped the land inventory to work better and serve its owner longer.
