Summary/Abstract: The point of departure of this article is an ethnographic observation of Easter Monday celebrations in Castelsardo (Sardinia), where the festivity possesses a unique form. Particular attention is due to the evening procession down the town streets, with four male choirs (quartets) performing religious songs. Reflections presented by the author of this article are based on his participation in the Lunissanti procession, his attitude to attempted objectivising observation, and difficulties with taking into account the experiences of a researcher in the course of writing an ethnographic text.
