Fete de la Musique 2007

The "Fête de la Musique" is back in Paris. The longest day of the year is also the most vibrant of the year in the french capital, july 14th and New Year's Eve just can't near or compete with anything like this.
Musicians can play all day wherever they want, be they professionals or mere amateurs. You can wander in any street and you will stumble on people playing music, singing and dancing.Many people choose to go to the major musical attractions which are usually listed in the newspapers, but they miss the real thing: the atmosphere in simple cafés and bars where musicians and patrons give a personal touch to the Fête. Here, in this bar of Belleville, the musicians (we can see the saxophone and the singer) play inside while people enjoy a glass and look as a woman magicly dances around the tables.
