Make Music Pasadena - A Fête de la Musique Event

Make Music Pasadena is a FREE musical celebration throughout the main districts in Pasadena, including Old Pasadena, One Colorado, the Playhouse District, and throughout the city. Make Music Pasadena takes place on World Music Day, the Summer Solstice, Saturday, June 21, 2008.

 

On that day, sidewalks, parks, courtyards, alleys, building lobbies and other unconventional performance spaces will become spontaneous musical stages and social gathering places. Amateur musicians will bring their musical talents to the streets of Pasadena and perform to new crowds.

 

Top selling and internationally known artists will perform at FOUR themed main stages. What better way to jump start the summer than by dancing in the streets, throughout the day, to these wonderful music performances.

 

All performances are free and open to the public.

 

Make Music Pasadena is produced by Old Pasadena Management District, One Colorado, Playhouse District Association, Pasadena Arts Council, Pasadena Convention and Visitors Bureau, Armory Center for the Arts, the Alliance Française de Pasadena, French Cultural Services in Los Angeles and FLAX, France Los Angeles Exchange.

 

Bringing Music to the Streets

The purpose of Make Music Pasadena is to encourage the community to find their inner artistic talents, and to unite them with new audiences. From professional musicians performing on main stages, to amateur musicians taking to the streets to showcase their talents, to people whistling while they walk, our mission is to encourage the community to Make Music where ever and how ever they can.

 

Where Will Musicians Play?

On city streets, sidewalks, alleyways, parks, museums, courtyards, rooftops, in private homes, on balconies, in lobbies, in gardens, at bus stops – or wherever a person decides to display their musical talent.
