As Cat Stevens he defined a generation. Now he returns to the Australian stage for the first time in 36 years - with hits of a lifetime.

When Yusuf last toured Australia, 36 years ago, it was as the enigmatic Cat Stevens, a powerful and evocative songsmith ever on ‘the road to find out'; an ingenious singer-songwriter who had touched millions with works that have been absorbed into the very fabric of his times ... and beyond - Peace Train, Where Do The Children Play?, Father & Son, (Remember The Days Of The) Old School Yard, First Cut Is The Deepest, Oh Very Young, Wild World, Moonshadow, Morning Has Broken and so very many others.

In 2010 he returns as the man who first dreamt those timeless songs and has woven them together with new masterpieces into a living folk-tale, as the result of an extraordinary spiritual journey. He, who began making music as Steven Georgiou during the pop wave of the sixties, presenting it to the world as Cat Stevens and now expressing a deeper breadth of understanding and eternal exploration as Yusuf, is once again attracting affection bordering on awe for his artistry. The voice that enchanted and inspired the dreams of a generation still does so and audiences are eager to revisit that which has been beyond their reach for decades.

World Book and Copyright Day - April 23

By celebrating this Day throughout the world, UNESCO seeks to promote reading, publishing and the protection of intellectual property through copyright.

23 April: A symbolic date for world literature for on this date and in the same year of 1616, Cervantes, Shakespeare and Inca Garcilaso de la Vega all died. It is also the date of birth or death of other prominent authors such as Maurice Druon, K.Laxness, Vladimir Nabokov, Josep Pla and Manuel Mejía Vallejo. It was a natural choice for UNESCO's General Conference to pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors on this date, encouraging everyone, and in particular young people, to discover the pleasure of reading and gain a renewed respect for the irreplaceable contributions of those who have furthered the social and cultural progress of humanity.

The idea for this celebration originated in Catalonia where on 23 April, Saint George's Day, a rose is traditionally given as a gift for each book sold. The success of the World Book and Copyright Day will depend primarily on the support received from all parties concerned (authors, publishers, teachers, librarians, public and private institutions, humanitarian NGOs and the mass media), who have been mobilized in each country by UNESCO National Commissions, UNESCO Clubs, Centres and Associations, Associated Schools and Libraries, and by all those who feel motivated to work together in this world celebration of books and authors.

Hari Buku dan Hak Cipta Sedunia - April 23

23 April: Sebuah tarikh simbolik untuk kesusasteraan dunia pada tarikh ini dan pada tahun yang sama 1616, Cervantes, Shakespeare dan Inca Garcilaso de la Vega semua meninggal dunia. Itu juga merupakan tarikh kelahiran atau kematian penulis terkemuka lain seperti Maurice Druon, K. Laxness, Vladimir Nabokov, Josep Pla dan Manuel Mejía Vallejo. Ini adalah pilihan yang tepat untuk UNESCO Persidangan Agung untuk membayar ufti di seluruh dunia buku dan penulis pada tarikh ini, mendorong semua orang, dan pada orang muda khususnya, untuk mencari kenikmatan membaca dan mendapatkan rasa hormat diperpanjang untuk sumbangan tak tergantikan dari mereka yang telah furthered kemajuan sosial dan budaya umat manusia.

Idea untuk perayaan ini berasal di Catalonia di mana pada tarikh 23 Mei, Saint George's Day, mawar secara tradisional diberikan sebagai hadiah untuk setiap buku yang terjual. Kejayaan Buku dan Hak Cipta Dunia Hari akan bergantung terutama pada sokongan yang diterima daripada semua pihak (penulis, penerbit, guru, pustakawan, lembaga-lembaga awam dan swasta, LSM kemanusiaan dan media massa), yang telah dimobilisasi di setiap negara oleh Suruhanjaya Kebangsaan UNESCO, UNESCO Clubs, Pusat dan Persatuan, Persatuan Sekolah dan Perpustakaan, dan oleh semua orang yang merasa termotivasi untuk bekerja sama dalam perayaan ini dunia buku dan penulis.

HARI BUKU SEDUNIA. Hari yang diwujudkan bagi memberikan penghargaan kepada dunia pembacaan dan penerbitan buku.
