Since 1982, the "Fête de la musique" (Fiesta of music) has been taking place
every year in France. This is not surprising since it is fun, free and exciting.
Basically anyone that can play music is invited to do so, for free, any place
they wish. The participants will range from amateur to professional or even
major celebrities. Every style of music is welcome and will be heard. Musicians will perform
everywhere: cafes, street corners, public buildings and more. Generally they are
invited to play in open space. In other words, on this day you might hear on
street corners highly acclaimed musicians who usually perform at the opera.
The event's original motto was "sharing, diversity and creativity". Today, this
event still hold true to it. read more
