Operas/Concerts in Paris for Fall 05
Anyone have suggestions as to where to look-up information on possible operas or concerts occurring this fall in Paris? I have the sudden urge to get all dressed up and head out to a venue. I've tried to google what I am looking for, but I seem to get a bunch of dead ends.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

This is the official site for the Opera Garnier and Opera Bastille. The Garnier is the older "phantom of the opera" house and Bastille is the newer glass one.

There are quite a few sites you could look at, there are a couple threads on here that list a lot of them which you can find if you put "paris classical music" in the search box (without quotes) and click on France. It's the 23rd post down.
As keb gave, the Paris Opera has their own website which you would use for that. If you want to get dressed up, I presume you are talking about the main concert venues, in which case, they have their own web sites also -- I recommend the Theatre des Champs Elysees for a wonderful experience and a beautiful small theatre.
Here's an excerpt of maybe the most useful (otherwise than going to a good ticket agency site www.fnac.com)
www.concertonet.com
www.concertclassic.com
(the latter is good because you can search by period, such as classique or romantique or baroque, or just "Paris" for all, it has other cities in France, also)
For specific venues, some good ones are:
www.cite-musique.fr (also site of the music museum, but concerts are held there, also)
www.chatelet-theatre.com (they get very good pianists there)
www.radio-france.fr
www.opera-de-paris.fr (they have some concerts there as well as dance/opera)
catholique-paris.cef.fr/nd2/concerts.htm (Notre Dame concerts and organ recitals)
www.stsulpice.com (St Sulpice church, famous organ)
www.radio-france.fr
www.sallegaveau.com
www.theatrechampselysees.fr
www.louvre.fr (they have an auditorium)
Some particular groups with web sites with their own schedules are:
www.ampconcerts.com (mgt company for 2 groups that perform at Ste Chapelle often, as well as other churches)
www.archetspf.asso.fr (similar to above group in what they do; I think ensemble of musicians from Paris Opera Ballet orchestre)
www.academie-de-musique.com (a choir of students and young professionals)
www.orchestredeparis.com

They'll be showing Marriage of Figaro in October, with a mostly Italian-Argentinian cast, led by the fabulous Patrizia Ciofi and Veronica Cangemi and accompanied by the superb orchestra Concerto Köln. On line reservations open on Monday August 29th. Wish me luck in securing myself a ticket.

click on "spectacles"..
includes big-name concerts down to local church concerts...
Hard to organize the list, ie by date, so you'll have to scan thru all the lists...
