World Music Day 2017

Fete de la Musique or World Music Day 2017 (not to be confused with International Music Day) was celebrated yesterday, June 21, marking the beginning of summer solstice, i.e., the longest day of the year. Initiated by France in 1982, World Music day has been adopted by over 120 nations across the world, including India. On the day, musicians from all genres and all ages, amateurs and experienced performers, gather together to perform and appreciate music.
