Valentine's Day, celebrated on February 14th, is a day dedicated to love and affection. Its origins can be traced to both Christian and Roman traditions. The name "Valentine" likely comes from two Christian martyrs named Valentine who lived in the Roman Empire during the 3rd century. One of the legends surrounding Valentine suggests that he defied Emperor Claudius II's ban on marriages for young men, as Claudius believed that single men made better soldiers. Valentine continued to perform marriages in secret and was eventually arrested and executed on a February 14th. Legend says, he sent a love letter to his jailer's daughter, signing it "From your Valentine," which is a phrase still used today. Valentine's Day gained popularity over the centuries. In the Middle Ages, it became associated with romantic love. In the 19th century, the exchange of love notes and cards became a common practice. Today, Valentine's Day is a global occasion. 200+ million roses are grown, 20+ Billion USD are spent, 190+ million Valentine's Day cards are exchanged in the US alone. Piquant: Among people surveyed, 20% of men purchase gifts for multiple partners, while only 6% of women do the same. Today is perfect for quality time with your partner, or, maybe, embracing the opportunity to finally express affection to your secret love. Be Decent, Virtuous and Brave and —ask them to be your Valentine! More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentine%27s_Day Art by Dall-E, text supported by ChatGPT.

Today we celebrate the enduring tradition and global popularity of choral singing, a communal art form that unites voices in harmony and expression. The oldest choral repertory known is from ancient Greece, 2nd century BC. Gregorian chants in churches starting in 400 AD also formed the early sounds of choirs. With the development of polyphony with more than one singer per part around the year 1400, choral music expanded its range and complexity, notably during the Reformation when homophonic music emerged around the early 17th century, emphasizing the alignment of melody and text. Choral singing eventually transcended its religious roots, thus gaining creative freedom. This led to significant compositions like Beethoven's 9th Symphony, 1824, which famously incorporated choirs. Popularity remains strong today with innovative projects like Eric Whitacre’s Virtual Choir with 35,000+ singers from 145 countries. In the U.S. there has been a renaissance since the 20th century under the influence of figures like Robert Shaw. Today choral singing is the most popular form of participation in the performing arts there, with some 43 million Americans involved in choruses. It's especially popular among children. Dedicated specially to the Wedding Singers, the Bayer Berlin Choir, that use their voices to give us togetherness and feeling our collective greater than us individuals.
