World Music Day is celebrated on 21 June.

It is celebrated as a tribute and honour to the artists of the world.

This day is also known as Fête de la Musique as it has been originated from France.

The origins of World Music Day have been traced back to 1982 when French Minister of Culture Jack Lang proposed the idea of celebrating a day of music or Fête de la Musique.

History suggests that the first World Music Day took place in 1982 in Paris, when more than 1,000 artists and musicians celebrated in different parts of the city.

This day holds a significant place in the heart of those who have sheer respect and love for music.

It also highlights and credits endless efforts of artists and musicians who work to provide us with melodies, songs, poems and proses.

Indeed, this day is truly note-able as it celebrates the essence of music, something that plays a huge role in our lives.

Have a great World Music Day!
