Visitors wandering through the Paris Metro will inevitably listen to the musicians playing tunes for commuters, instrument cases laid open for the generosity of passers-by. And then there are the accordion players serenading couples strolling along the quays of the River Seine and the violinists that fill the air with Chopin near the Notre Dame Cathedral, in the <a title=\"Travel tips about the 4th arrondissement of Paris\" href=\"\/blog\/category\/paris\/paris-travel-guide\/paris-neighborhoods\/notre-dame-hotel-ville\/\">4th arrondissement<\/a>. Visitors are filled with the melodies of the city even before they step through the doors of the <strong>world-famous Opera or Salle Pleyel<\/strong>. Yet the most musical day of the entire year in this city of musicians is June 21st, when the annual <strong>F\u00eate de la Musique<\/strong> brings every genre of music out on to the streets for one of the most raucous soir\u00e9es of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Each year <strong>since 1982 the F\u00eate unites big-name musicians<\/strong> from the city\u2019s major venues with choirs, rock groups and jazz quartets in a most-Parisian kind of party. Although the festival defies categories, this year\u2019s theme is 50 years of chanson Fran\u00e7aise, surely to be reflected in the playlists of organized acts. All music acts on this special night are free of charge and open to the public, it is an exercise of community in its purist form. The festival has become so popular in France that it has been imitated the world over, now taking place in over 100 countries in five continents. Visitors to Paris on June 21st shouldn\u2019t be surprised to bump into a roaming marching band on its way down a grand avenue or a growing crowd gathering around a popular French city. The event is wholly participatory, and the really savvy travelers in town on the 21st will find room in their suitcase for their favorite instrument.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>If you have a passion for the music , we have many <a title=\"Paris Vacation Rentals \" href=\"\/paris-apartment\/vacation\">vacation rentals in Paris<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"img size-full wp-image-4678 alignright\" style='width:300px;'>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/paris-apartment\/vacation\/1577\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/paris-vacation-rental.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Paris Vacation Rental (PA-1577)\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>\n\t<div>Paris Vacation Rental (PA-1577)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>-This beautiful <a title=\"Paris Vacation Rental:2 Bedroom Vacation Rental in Belleville,Cite des Sciences - Buttes Chaumont (PA-1577) \" href=\"\/paris-apartment\/vacation\/1577\">2-bedroom Accommodation in Belleville, Cite des Sciences-Buttes Chaumont (PA-1577)<\/a> features renovated hardwood floors, sliding glass doors opening onto a terrace and is tastefully decorated and designed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; This bright <a title=\"Paris Accommodation: Studio in Montmartre - Sacre Coeur (PA-3938)\" href=\"\/paris-apartment\/vacation\/3938\">Studio Vacation Rental in Montmartre &#8211; Sacre Coeur (PA-3938)<\/a> sports hardwood floors, a nicely-sized kitchen and a luxurious massage shower in the renovated bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>Now we will read about \u00a0<a title=\"Lets learn about fete de Musique in South of France\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/blog\/2009\/03\/13\/fete-de-la-musique-south-hifrance\/\">F\u00eate de la Musique in South of France.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paris is a musical city.
