“We needed an event that would make it possible to measure the place occupied by music in individual and collective life. A spectacular movement of awareness, a spontaneous momentum to alert public opinion and perhaps also… the political class. C This is why the Ministry of Culture had the idea of ​​organizing a Fête de la Musique in 1982. A non-directive party, which brings together all French people for whom music matters. “, underlined in 1983 Maurice Fleuret in Télérama.
