Lonely Planet review for Cité de la Musique
On the southern edge of Parc de la Villette, the City of Music is a striking triangular-shaped concert hall whose brief is to bring non-elitist music from around the world to Paris’ multiethnic masses. In the same complex, the Musée de la Musique displays some 900 rare musical instruments out of a collection of 4500 warehoused, and you can hear many of them being played through the earphones included in the admission cost.
