Music Everywhere

If you are in France on the third weekend of June, you can enjoy the music festival which takes place throughout the entire country, and, it seems, Monaco too.

Live musicians suddenly appear on every street corner. If you don't care for one band, just walk a block and you'll hear someone different.

One of my favorite memories is of dancing in the street (along with a couple of hundred others) outside the famed Casino of Monte Carlo to a truly fabulous jazz band. And what a setting, of course. High on a hill overlooking all of Monaco with a parade of formally clad patrons exiting fabulous cars to try their luck at the Casino.

On a more pedestrian note (pun intended) here is a  clip of street musicians in Paris and the Paris metro.
