Yesterday we celebrated
La Fête de la Musique, also known as World Music Day.
The concept of
an all-day musical celebration on the days of the solstice, was originated by
the French Minister of Culture, Jack Lang in 1982.
Ever since, the festival has become an
international phenomenon, celebrated on the same day in more than 700 cities in
120 countries.
In many cultures,
music is an important part of people's way of life, as it plays a key role in
religious rituals, rite of passage ceremonies (e.g., graduation and marriage),
social activities (e.g., dancing) and cultural activities
ranging from
amateur karaoke singing to playing in an amateur funk band or singing in a
community choir.
Be it happy or sad….
Most of us have at least one memorable event attached to a song…A song that
makes u remember someone or a treasured moment!!!
Wish you all a
great day.
