21st June is celebrated world over as Fete de la Musique, or World Music Day. This year we decided to join in the celebrations too, like the title suggests. So starting in the morning, we shall be posting song links throughout the day with the hashtag #AroundtheWorldin80Songs. A total of 80 songs that would essentially showcase exotic (and even not-so-exotic) instruments from around the world. And at the end of the day we would compile a playlist of those songs on YouTube for anyone interested (we shall be linking the playlist here too once created). In case you see us missing out any instrument, feel free to point them out to us, with interesting songs employing them. One song per instrument of course. That’s all with the ground rules; Happy World Music Day all!
