ABOUT DANIEL PEARL DAY

Daniel Pearl Day is an international movement that has included over 6,000 concerts in more than 100 countries to date. The goal is to use music to overcome political, cultural and religious divisions in an attempt to bring “harmony for humanity”, and also to commemorate the life of Daniel Pearl, the former Wall Street Journal reporter who was killed by terrorists in Pakistan in 2002. Outside of journalism, Danny Pearl played the violin, mandolin and other string instruments, and he’d seek out local musicians at each of his postings. Danny’s musician friends in the US decided to remember his life not by raising money for some cause, but by organizing a string of performances around the world. Last year there were more than 1,000 such performances around the world, from the Middle East to Taipei.

This year in Taipei, Daniel Pearl Day welcomes one of the movement’s founders, folk singer and Danny’s friend, Todd Mack. He’ll team up with the local band Blues Vibration and other
musicians on stage. In all, there will be at least 18 musical groups playing from 1pm to 10pm on two outdoor stages, and the entire concert is FREE! We look forward to seeing you there!
