-Street cries are the short lyrical calls of merchants hawking their products and services in open-air markets. The custom of hawking has led many sellers to create personalized melodic phrases. In the 18th and 19th centuries, street crises in large urban centers became one of the distinctive features of urban life. Street shouting became a popular subject among poets, musicians, artists and writers of the time. Many of these street cries have been cataloged in large collections or incorporated into larger musical works, saving them from oblivion.
