THE SUNDAY SOUND: THE SOUND OF PARIS.

Lute (?) outside Notre Dame.
Paris. One of few places that live up to the hype.

Brian took me to Paris in August, making good on a promise he made on our very first date. We stayed in Le Marais, a historic district just a stroll away from the breathtaking Notre Dame de Paris (my life was forever changed because of this building).

On one of our walks, we passed a Parisian gentleman expertly playing what looks like a lute. Listening to it tonight was, in some ways, even more powerful than the first time. His music became the accompaniment for

  • the lilting beauty of the French language
  • the tinkling sound of appreciative pocket change
  • the steady beat of adult footsteps
  • the rushed skip of a child's footsteps
  • the iconic sound of a bicycle (my favorite; around 1:00 mark)

THE SUNDAY SOUND: December 8, The Sound of Paris.
