🎺 TODAY IS INTERNATIONAL JAZZ DAY 🎺 In November 2011, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) officially designated April 30 as International Jazz Day @intljazzday in order to highlight jazz and its diplomatic role of uniting people in all corners of the globe. International Jazz Day is chaired and led by UNESCO Director General Audrey Azoulay and legendary jazz pianist and composer @herbiehancock , who serves as a @unesco Ambassador for Intercultural Dialogue and Chairman of the Herbie Hancock Institute of Jazz. The Institute is the nonprofit charged with planning, promoting and producing an annual celebration. International Jazz Day brings together communities, schools, artists, historians, academics, and jazz enthusiasts all over the world to celebrate and learn about jazz and its roots, future and impact; raise awareness of the need for intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding; and reinforce international cooperation and communication. Each year on April 30, this international art form is recognized for promoting peace, dialogue among cultures, diversity, and respect for human rights and human dignity; eradicating discrimination; fostering gender equality; and promoting freedom of expression. Here is a little clip, on stage with mentors and mates. Coming together to share in the joy of making music together, with the classic tune, Basin St Blues 🎶🫶🏼💕 #intjazzday2023 #jazz #livemusic #basinstreetblues #jazzday2023 #jazzday #music #connection #joy #stage #theatre #makingmusic #performance #gigs #unesco #sydney #australianmusicians #worldwidejazz
