interesting overview, well sourced. Of course you can't mention everything. I miss the many composers who worked there for a while, from Mozart to Wagner, organ builder Aristide Cavaillé-Coll and Sacre du Printemps. I wonder how the opera houses are sorted, the youngest, Bastille, appears in the middle, followed by "in more recent times"? - I am not happy with both hook and pic, - that one person does not look "typically Parisian" to me. I could imagine the akkordeon player and the Renoir, with a matching hook, what do you think. If possible, link "music in Paris" or "Musician in Paris", - who is supposed to click on "musician"? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:54, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
- I've edited the venue section. --Rosiestep (talk) 13:38, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you, nice. Would you find a more Parisian pic and hook? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:29, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

- How about this ALT1 Hook with a different img?--Nvvchar. 18:40, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

... that in the cathedral, polyphony and organ music (pictured organ in the cathedral) were part of Music tradition in Paris, reserved for solemn occasions at a time when acoustics were not well developed?
- Sorry, it's too complicated, and it could be any major church, not typical Paris. Any chance for the accordion? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:59, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
- It is tough. Let me propose this ALT2 Hook with a new image.--Nvvchar. 22:27, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

... that Parisian and Italian musicians in the music scene of Paris played the accordion (pictured accordion player) adopted to the Bal-musette style?
- What do you think of a rewording, assuming that people know what Paris (typo in ALT2 fixed) and Italy mean?
- ALT3... that Parisian and Italian musicians in the music scene of Paris played the accordion (pictured) adopted to the Bal-musette style? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:31, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. Rewording is fine in ALT3.--Nvvchar. 17:21, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
ALT3, rewording of ALT2, offline source accepted AGF, image free and suitable, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:48, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
