I'm starting to worry  ??? Maybe I am mistaken that this holiday is international...  ;D I've been taught that October 1st is INTERNATIONAL Music Day, but maybe it's not right after all  ;D I live in Bulgaria and almost all my friends are musicians, since I'm one  :P and we've been talking about this all day so I'm sure I'm not mistaken the date...  ::)   :-\

You're right, I googled it.  But I think it's the first one.  The international music council, whatever that is, programmed it in May for October 1st.  well, happy music day.  Sounds better than Happy D-Day or happy memorial day.  ;D

I googled it too  ;D And Wikipedia says that UNESCO has made this holiday in 1974, but unfortunately the article is in Bulgarian, so there is no point showing it here  ;D In the end, Happy Music Day (really)  ;D
