What are good evening activities in Paris?
Last Tuesday evening, my neighbor Jacques offered me a spare ticket to see pianist Jean-François Zygel at Salle Gaveau. I had an hour to get there, so I took the train to Saint-Lazare and enjoyed a stroll through the 8th arrondissement to reach the concert hall. Jacques and I chose seats in the first balcony rather than the orchestra level. When Zygel sat down at the piano and started playing, I recognized Debussy immediately. The whole evening happened because Jacques had an extra ticket and thought to ask if I wanted to come along – which is just how these things work in Paris.
