NEW BEDFORD, MASSACHUSETTS

Life is full of joy just because of the friends we have made and the thingsin common we share. We want to live one, not because of ourselves, but because ofthe people who care. It’s giving and doing for somebody else, that all life’s splendordepends. And the joy of the world when you have summed it all up, is found in themaking of friends.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

A vide é cheia de alegria sómente por causa dos amigos que temos feito e doque temos em comum e partilhamos. Nós queremos viver, não por causa de nóspróprios, mas por causa das pessoas a quem queremos bem. Somando tudo isto, aalegria do mundo será encontrada na construção de amigos.

Welcome to the 2012 Feast of the Blessed Sacrament.

For nearly one hundred years this rich and unique tradition, in-herited from our parents and grandparents, has been our way of remembering and honoring our Madeiran heritage.

It is a tradition we take great pride in sharing with all of you. Whether you are from our home of New Bedford; other commu-nities of Massachusetts, New England or nearly every state in this great country; or from Canada, Portugal, and the entire world; we hope you have wonderful memories of this 98th celebration. It is my honor and pleasure to serve as President of the Club Madeirense S.S. Sacramento, the supporting organization of the Feast.

We thank our families, our many friends, lour local and regional government and business community, as well as the hundreds of volunteers, who every year give their time and effort to bring this Feast to all of you.

We are proud of our contribution, through your help, to hundreds of local, statewide, national and international charities. Our scholarship donations to deserving students of all nationalities and back-grounds stands now at over $400,000.00.

We also take pride in the Grupo Folclorico Madeirense which endeavors to share our traditions with the greater community.

Congratulations to Lou Teixeira and this year’s committee. Made up of over sixty men the 2012 Feste-iros, with the support of their wives, sweethearts and families, have worked and planned for a year to make this one of the most outstanding cultural events in the United States.

The Festeiros and many members of the Club have worked together, enjoyed each other’s company, made new or connected with long-time friends during the preparations for these four days.

We remember all who have come before and have a special place in our hearts for the Festeiros and members of their families who are no longer with us.

We have exciting plans underway for 2014 the occasion of our 100th anniversary!

My wife Olga and I wish all of you BOAS FESTAS!

A Message from the 2012 Feast President

As I write “Welcome to the 98th Feast of the

Blessed Sacrament”, I feel a renewed bond to my

great grandfather, Manuel Coutinho, one of the

original four founders of this great event. There

are now almost 100 years of tradition to be proud

of and I look forward to sharing the 98th Feast of

the Blessed Sacrament with my committee, family,

friends and community.

When I was nominated and elected President of

the 2012 edition of New Bedford’s signature sum-

mer event, my own heart filled with pride and hu-

mility. We have worked hard to bring you the Feast

you have come to expect. From the entertainment to the food, the parade to a sparkling

clean feast grounds . . . we managed to finish on time and you have seen the results of

our work.

As you read this, our Feast is in full swing and hopefully, it has proven to be New Bed-

ford’s biggest party of the summer. In closing, I want to thank all of the members of

the 2012 Committee, the Club S.S. Madeirense and the countless scores of family and

friends who have volunteered their time to make this year’s Feast the best ever.

We look forward to seeing you all again next year as the clock ticks down to our 100th

celebration in 2014!

Bailinho da MadeiraBY STEPHEN L. CABRAL, PH.D.

The sound and spirit of the Feast of the Blessed Sacrament pulsate to the music of the traditional bailinho performed by the Grupo Folclorico Madeirense. These dancers and musicians have performed onstage, in the streets and at the feast grounds since 1979. Dulce Langhan organized the group for her uncle, Sylvester Sylvia, who was president of the 1979 committee. George Bertoldo, his vice-president became the first musical director.

The group’s musical repertoire includes songs that are five centuries old. The Madeiran singing duels called, cantigas ao desafio and the bailinho, the unofficial national anthem of Madeira, are crowd favorites. The folk dancers perform nightly on the main stage of Madeira Field and prominently march in the ritual processions and parade.

The Madeiran Folklore Group became an instant success when they appeared at Madeira Field. Their performances have been carried by American and Portuguese television and newspapers. They have made countless, public appearances in Portuguese communities and folkloric festivals throughout the United States, Canada and Madeira. These tours are recorded in the ribbons and awards hanging from their flag standards.

The Madeiran folklore group wears the traditional outfits from the village of Camacha. The women wear brocaded, red vests over white blouses. Their rainbow, wool striped skirts twirl and spin to the music. Their tan botas de chá complete the ensemble. Their male partners wear simple white, linen pants and shirts with matching boots and blue berets.

The notoriety of the current troupe stems from the musical roots and dancing customs of their ancestors. Tour the Museum of Madeiran Heritage and study the photos of the first folkloric groups compiled by Madeiran artist and museum founder, Joseph Souza. The earliest photo of the Romaria da Camacha dates back to 1931. The Baptiste family organized the troupe and made many of the musical instruments and costumes by hand.

The Folkloric Group of Santa Cruz emerged during the summer of 1932. The growth and popularity of Madeiran folklore can be seen in the proud faces of the musicians and dancers. Their group recruited more than thirty performers.

The Romaria da Camacaha performed with the Folkloric Group of Santa Cruz at the Dia Madeirense Pic-Nic at Perry’s Gove at the junction of Hathaway and State Roads in July of 1934. Both groups performed at a festival commemorating the Festas of Ponta Delgada on the island of Madeira at the Sharp Street grounds during the Labor Day Weekend later that summer. These events were frequently covered and reported in the Diaro das Noticias published in New Bedford.

Madeiran folkloric music provided the beat and inspiration behind the Ramboia a Pe De New Bedford ao Loreto in Norton. Twenty-eight Madeirans undertook the 31 mile pilgrimage to the Feast of Our Lady of Loreto during the Labor Day weekend of 1948. This group decided to resurrect an old Madeiran feast custom. Extended families and friends often walked and sang along the routes to festas at neighboring villages in the island. Thirty mile hikes along mountain trails and narrow unpaved roads were not unusual. Only eight of the original Madeiran-Americans completed the walk to Loreto.

The Grupo Saudades da Madeira attracted a new generation of American-born descendants in 1950. They donned the traditional costumes, learned the songs and performed the bailinho at the festa. They were followed by the Grupo Recordacoes da Madeira in 1956.

Madeiran folklore waned in the 1960’s and reemerged in the 1970’s. Michael R. Canasta is the current group director and a dancer. He traces his Madeiran ancestry to Santa Cruz and Gaula. Traditional folkloric music and dancing have become his passion. Mr. Canasta concluded:

“Our folkloric group is the heart and soul of this festa. We are proud to wear this costume and take the stage on behalf of our club,our community and our ancestors. When we dance, we keep themusic and culture alive.”

Best Wishes on your 98th Anniversary ofthe Feast of the Blessed Sacrament
