Fira internationella musikdagen...

18 juni 2020

…och njut av de kommande #Don’tStopTheMusic-liveframträdandena online

Stockholm, 18 juni, 2020 – Den 21:a juni är en speciell dag för alla musikälskare - runt om i världen firar människor Make Music Day eller Fête de la Musique. Denna unika årliga fest har sitt ursprung i Frankrike och firas nu i mer än 1 000 städer och 120 länder runt om i världen för att uppmuntra deltagande i musik på alla nivåer. Normalt handlar dagen om att samlas för att njuta av gratis liveevenemang på arenor och i offentliga utrymmen, men med coronaviruset är situationen givetvis annorlunda ... Och ändå spelas musiken på: Många evenemang flyttar online, och Sennheiser är glada att tillägna sina egna #DontStopTheMusic-konserter denna vecka och nästa till detta inspirerande projekt.

This month, audio specialist Sennheiser is also celebrating a unique musical story – marking 75 years since the company’s foundation in 1945. Today, and through its history, Sennheiser has been proud to support artists in the creation and sharing of music.

“Whether you’re a singer songwriter recording your first track, a superstar who’s filling stadiums or a DJ mixing up a storm, audio equipment has always been about making it easier to express oneself through music,” said Pierre Morant, Head of Relationship Management, Sennheiser. “However, more important than the instruments or the equipment is the passion for making, listening and sharing music that is at the start of every musical journey which ‘Make Music Day’ celebrates. During these two weeks we are really excited to play a part in keeping the music alive with performances from some great talent as part of our #DontStopTheMusic initiative.”

As part of its 75th anniversary – and throughout the coronavirus shutdown – Sennheiser’s #DontStopTheMusic has been keeping live music going strong. The exclusive, free, live-streamed concerts have seen artists from around the globe performing to audiences at home. This week and next, Sennheiser will present concerts by Hudson Thames on June 17, Aedan on June 19, Nic Hanson on June 22, Callaghan on June 24 and Solardo on June 26. Sennheiser’s #DontStopTheMusic series are streamed on Facebook.
