PARIS CITY OF JAZZ
This private guided tour invites you to relive a time when jazz heated the basements of the 6th arrondissement, and which made Paris the second capital of jazz!
Explore, in the company of your music-loving guide, the mythical streets and places of Saint-Germain des Prés which saw the birth of post-war be-bop: the “Les Deux magots” café, where the existentialists revived the world, the vanished clubs of rue Saint-Benoit, the meetings of Prévert and Vadim in the cellars of the “Bar Vert” rue Jacob, the smoky and feverish evenings of the mythical Tabou and its alter ego the Saint-Germain club …
Without forgetting the few addresses still present and sometimes hidden where neophytes and amateurs meet for a concert to discover the riches of Jazz.
