Saint Chapelle concerts
Interested in concerts here. Does anyone know the website for information, dates, etc?<BR>Enjoyed visiting for concerts at St. Martin's-in-the-Field in London. <BR>Is there a site for information about services at Notre Dame? Would like to attend Mass on Sunday, if doable.

I didn't have very good luck with pre-trip website planning for Ste Chappelle last Spring. So we just walked over one afternoon and purchased tickets for the concert (can't remember if it was that night or the next). They are a little less expensive if you can get them ahead of time, but when I tried to get tickets via the web, it said the concert was sold out. That wasn't the case at all when we got to Paris.

Grammy, <BR>For Notre-Dame, try this site. Click 'Visitez Notre Dame' on the top/left and go to 'concerts'.<BR>http://catholique-paris.cef.fr/nd2/index.htm<BR><BR>It's in French, but I hope can manage it.<BR><BR>There seems to be auditions on Sundays at 05.15 PM.<BR>You will also find the schedules for Sunday Masses.

Does anyone know about how long the concerts at Ste. Chapelle ususally last? I notice on the ampconcerts site that they all seem to be at 7:15 pm or 9:00 pm. Should we have dinner after the 7:15 performance or before the 9:00 pm performance? Also, ticket prices seem to be from 15-23 euros for all performances. Are the higher priced tickets worth the difference?

<BR>Betty, I see that there are concerts on one day (March 27) either at 07.15 PM or at 09.00 PM.<BR>So, I assume they last some 90 minutes. That's also what I've experienced so far.<BR>Personally, I would prefer the ones scheduled at 07.15 PM.<BR>If you choose the later one, you might have to rush through dinner, unless you start latest at 07.00 PM.<BR>I would prefer a quiet dinner starting around 09.00 PM.<BR>As for the prices, the more expensive tickets are in front, the less expensive in the back. They are not numbered and if you can manage to sit in the better rows of the 2nd category, is doesn't really make a difference.
