World Music Day: Alliance Française de Bangalore to host a series of programmes
The Alliance Française de Bangalore is celebrating 'Fête de la musique' (World Music Day) on Saturday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. at their Vasanth Nagar centre. This year, the Alliance Française Bangalore is partnering with Indian Music Experience Museum and will present over 100 performances on two different stages, besides holding movie screenings, musical workshops, interactive displays, a karaoke room and more, said a release from Alliance. 'The event was created in France in 1982 with the concept of dedicating a whole day to the power of music. On that day (which is summer solstice), everywhere in France, anybody is allowed to perform any music anywhere,' said the release. A wide variety of genres will be presented, from rock to classical Indian music, pop, fusion, unplugged, jazz, soul, and hip-hop, among others will be presented. Those performing include Vasu Dixit Collective, Suraj Mani (Mother Jane), Bruce Lee Mani (Thermal and a Quarter), Slytrix, Laya Ranjani percussion ensemble, and Mars Mansion Mystery.
