Alliance Française Dhaka to celebrate World Music Day Thursday

Alliance Française de Dhaka will celebrate "Fete de la Musique 2018", globally known as 'World Music Day', with a series musical performance in its La Galerie on Thursday from 3pm to 9pm.

Aiming to integrate through the universal language of melody and rhythm, the Fete de la musique inspires an overture to a participative lyrical voyage by putting forward thousands of free concerts all over the world, reports UNB citing a press release on Tuesday.

Celebrated on the day of the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere, the Fete de la musique was initiated in 1982.

More than 120 countries and around 350 cities partake in this event. This is the free to any participants, non-professional or professional musicians.

Like every year, Alliance Française de Dhaka is organising a number of musical concerts - both solo and group performances, as well as an open stage.

Fete de la musique brings about a great opportunity to immerse and participate in a musical expedition by offering thousands of free concerts all over the world.
