So Christmas preparations have begun in earnest, and here is another example of our uniquest. Christmas for some Trinibagoians is the most local tradition we still enjoy. It is a time where old traditions are bountiful and enjoyed by all including the younger generation. 

So sit back and watch this week's episode and then take in the entire page and allow it to invade your senses. 

Also to remind everyone to name your nominations for the PNT Tv's 1st Annual Screen Awards...and as for our recruitment drive, for those of you interested, make a video, email or respond to any of the required sources of entertainment.

Daisy Voisin (23 September 1924 – 7 August 1991) was a Parang singer and composer.
Voisin was born in Erin, Trinidad and Tobago. She began her singing career in the Village Council and other local groups. A deeply religious person, she received the message to spread the gospel of Parang in a church in Siparia in 1973. Not long after she was launched into the spotlight at a "Best Village" competition in 1971. She did her best to live up to that calling.
Hailed as the undisputed "Queen of Parang" for her vocal prowess and the many triumphs and popularity of the band she led, the La Divina Pastora Serenaders, Daisy Voisin left an indelible mark on the local Parang scene in Trinidad and Tobago. Armed with her sweet, powerful voice and a bouquet of flowers in hand, she ruled Parang music in for countless years. Her signature songs "Hurray Hurrah" and "Alegría, Alegría" becoming Christmas classics, sung with her characteristic musical trill "aiyee, aiyee".
Her live performances were described as "explosive, vivacious and tempestuous". Voisin and her group became cultural ambassadors for Trinidad and Tobago taking the music to places in the Caribbean, Isla Margarita, Venezuela and North America. In the later days of her life, Voisin's performances were few, hampered by ill-health, but the quality of her voice was still evident.
