Good morning! 
It is Friday, 30 April 2021
(W17 | D120 | 245 rem)
Today is: 
International Jazz Day 
We have back-to-back UNESCO sponsored international cultural days: yesterday it was Dance, today we celebrate Jazz.
International Jazz Day is an International Day declared by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization in 2011 “to highlight jazz and its diplomatic role of uniting people in all corners of the globe.”
On the 30th of April annually, International Jazz Day celebrates jazz music’s influence in promoting peace and intercultural dialogue.
The day highlights the ability for jazz to unite people from all walks of life and draw together folks from around the globe. No one is left out, as this day brings together artists, schools, communities, historians, academics, and jazz aficionados to raise awareness around this type of music and educate the public about the roots, impact, and future of jazz. There’s a deep-rooted message attached to this day of celebration, such as reinforcing international cooperation and communication.
It brings to light the need for intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding through one of the best ways possible, music. The power of the music will be apparent when participants view people of all backgrounds, forgetting about their differences and joining together to celebrate jazz. Any adverse circumstances from the past or present are suddenly forgotten or pushed aside, and people begin to focus on friendship, freedom, hope, and dignity instead.
The day itself is intended to promote peace, diversity, respect among different cultures, and highlight the need for human rights and dignity. The music itself addresses the desire for eliminating discrimination and promoting the freedom of expression. Youth are also encouraged to participate by enacting change and helping to foster gender equality.
International Jazz Day began in 2011 when the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization declared International Jazz Day as an opportunity to give recognition to jazz music and state its role to unite people all around the globe. It’s been going strong ever since and people look forward to this day each year when music lovers from around the world can share in the experience of listening to and making jazz music.
The idea emerged from jazz pianist and UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador Herbie Hancock. Together, the UNESCO Director-General and Hancock chair the event and ensure people from all over come out to participate in the celebration each year.
Cities such as Paris, New Orleans, and New York were some of the first to begin to educate the public on the event and draw excitement to Jazz Day.
This year’s 10th anniversary of International Jazz Day features the second successive virtual global concert being streamed via YouTube. (Last year’s live IJD Concert was originally planned to be held in Cape Town. But then, Corona. The 2020 International Jazz Day Virtual Global Concert is still online.)
This year’s concert will begin at 11pm SAST tonight:
Blow your trumpet and get jazzy with it folks - it is Friday after all!
