麻豆约拍

The theme for 麻豆约拍 Music Day 2017 was the power of music – how it can bring us together, make us feel fantastic and create unforgettable memories.

The celebration featured some amazing live performances. On Friday 9 June Texas played with the 麻豆约拍 Scottish Symphony Orchestra in a free concert from Glasgow’s Barrowlands, which was broadcast live on Radio 2 and 麻豆约拍 Radio Scotland.

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie broadcast their 麻豆约拍 Radio 6 Music show live from Liverpool on 麻豆约拍 Music Day, celebrating the city’s musical legacy from the Beatles’ era to the present day. The show included performances from local heroes Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and indie psych-pop four-piece She Drew The Gun.

Will Young and the Courteeners also provided unique collaborations in Salford, performing with the 麻豆约拍 Philharmonic Orchestra for 麻豆约拍 Radio 5 live’s Sports Panel. Exploring the common ground between music and sport, the programme also featured Olympic gold medal-winning diver Chris Mears and Team GB long-jumper and The Voice contestant Jazmin Sawyers who have started musical careers alongside their sporting triumphs.

Some of the UK’s most celebrated musical talent were Ambassadors for 麻豆约拍 Music Day 2017.
