World Music Day 2019 | On June 21, World Music Day or Fête de la Musique all genres of music from around the world are celebrated.
French law allows music lovers and enthusiasts to play music without any restrictions in public spaces and parks on this day.
First celebrated in France in 1982, Fête de la Musique also encourages amateur musicians to perform in the streets.
So, as the World is all set to celebrate World Music Day by grooving to their favorite songs, we bring to you a collection of quotes that will help you understand why music is necessary:
