Among many known touristic attractions, every visitor of Paris is astounded with the amount of music activities offered by the city. Concerts are advertised heavily on the streets, and in metro stations: orchestras, small ensembles, individual musicians do all possible acrobatics to attract an audience and rise to prominence from among hundreds of music events taking place in the city. But Paris is much more than the great Opera House, wonderful concert halls along with churches offering regular music delights. Paris is a city that loves music, with people enjoying music, and enjoying performing, whether for a living or the fun of it. Paris is also home to wonderful historical landmarks reminding the viewer of the importance of musical culture in the country's history. Cite de la Musique is among the best places to get a glimpse of the history of music and its instruments, while Père Lachaise cemetery in North-East Paris, became a final destination of many renowned world musicians, reminding visitors of many greats from the classical world to popular singers and songwriters.
