Hi %recipient.firstname%,

 

The day after tomorrow, June 21, is the summer solstice, i.e. the day with the longest period of daylight in the Northern hemisphere.

It's also Make Music Day, an annual celebration created in 1982 by the French Ministry for Culture. The goal was to create a day when there would be music everywhere, a day when anyone could make music and everyone could listen to live music, for free.

Thirty-six years later, Make Music Day is now celebrated in more than 800 cities in over 120 countries. It really is a worldwide event!

 

If you don't have any musical instruments, you can make them yourself. Like, for example, this tambourine made from a Camembert cheese box.

And here are some other musical instruments that you can make yourself:
