【欧洲·比利时】桑伯河与缪斯河流域大游行 Marches of Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse（2012年）

恩特雷·桑布雷和默兹的游行是比利时瓦隆尼亚桑布雷河和默兹河之间的同名地区文化特征的主要组成部分。这些游行是为了纪念许多村庄和小城镇的教堂为纪念圣徒而奉献的，这些宗教建筑是为圣徒而建的。整个村镇都参加了。有人护送的游行队伍由几个连组成，以军事模式为基础，每个连都有数十人，甚至数百人参加游行。参与者穿着军装，组成一个或多个公司护送宗教游行。由一个委员会和/或法定机构管理每家公司，组织游行路线并确保正确的队形。年轻人与父母一起在青年卫队或其他公司游行。传统的传播是通过口头方式进行的，通常在家庭圈子内，但也在组织游行所需的集会、会议、宴会或舞会期间进行。一代又一代的笛子和鼓被创造出来，将他们的知识、歌曲和音乐传递给新的音乐家。类似地，鼓和笛制造商以及数十位服装设计师将他们的手艺传承到乐器、服装、旗帜和配饰的重新组合和创作中。游行在促进融合、聚集不同背景的男女以及促进社会凝聚力方面发挥着关键作用。

The Marches of Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse are a major component of the cultural identity of the eponymous region found between the rivers of Sambre and Meuse in Wallonia, Belgium. The marches commemorate the dedication of churches of many villages and small towns honouring the Saint to whom the religious buildings are dedicated. The whole villages and towns participate. The escorted processions consist of several companies, based on a military model, and each company group tens, even hundreds of marchers. The participants dress in military uniforms, forming one or more companies that escort the religious procession. A committee and/or a statutory body manage each company, organizing the course of the march and ensuring the correct formations. Young people march alongside their parents in the Young Guard or other companies. The transmission of traditions occurs orally, often within the family circle, but also during gatherings, meetings, banquets or balls necessary for the organization of the march. Dynasties of fifes and drums have been created that transmit their knowledge, songs and music to new musicians. Similarly, drum and fife manufacturers and dozens of artisan clothes designers pass on their craftsmanship in reconstituting and creating instruments, costumes, flags and accessories. The marches play a key role in enhancing integration, assembling men and women from different backgrounds and promoting social cohesion.
