AFD to celebrate ‘World Music Day’ today

Alliance Française de Dhaka is going to celebrate ‘Fête de la Musique 2023’ which is globally known as ‘World Music Day’ with a series of musical performances at its La Galerie today at 4.30 pm.

Aiming to integrate through the universal language of melody and rhythm, the Fête de la Musique inspires an overture to a participative lyrical voyage by putting forward thousands of free concerts all over the world. Celebrated on the day of the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere, 21 June, the Fête de la Musique was initiated in 1982.

The Fête de la Musique is open to any participant be they amateur or professional musicians who wish to perform in this joyful event. All the participating musicians are asked to perform for free, and all of the concerts are free to the public.

Like every year, Alliance Française de Dhaka is organising several musical concerts — both solo and group performances.
