\"PictureWe\u2019ve commented in the past on the Parisian love for music<\/strong>; the numerous jazz clubs dotting the city\u2019s winding streets, the street performers of concert quality and the rock and pop festivals that set up shop each summer on the city\u2019s outskirts. The embrace of music in this city is genuine and far from genre-specific. Parisian\u2019s get their music fix in many different ways, but for most out-of-towners there are few types of music that match the feel and architecture of this city better than classical music. Throw a few classical songs on your iPod before going for a walk around the St. Germain des pres<\/a> district and you\u2019ll know what we\u2019re talking about.<\/p>\n

Not surprisingly, Parisians hold classical music in very high regard and have a special affection for Frederic Chopin<\/strong> who, although Polish, was born to a French father and spent much of his adult life living in Paris, as many Frenchman are quick to point out. In fact, the city is so in love with Chopin\u2019s musical genius<\/strong> that they\u2019ve been hosting a festival in his honor going on 27 years. This year\u2019s Chopin festival will also pay tribute to another noted romantic composer, Robert Schumann. The Chopin Music Festival<\/strong>, taking place from June 18th to July 14th (Bastille Day), at the Orangerie de Bagatelle, with an opening concert at the UNESCO Grand Auditorium, will celebrate the music of the two composers with eight candle-lit concerts and three afternoon recitals featuring some of the world\u2019s finest living pianists, composers and classical musicians. Concert prices are reasonable and take place a short walk from the\u00a0Eiffel Tower<\/a>. Can you think of a better place on earth to take in classical music?<\/p>\n
