I personally like it a lot. There was a fascinating exhibit on Chagall and music a few years ago, did you get to see it?

Me too! I must have missed the exhibit! I definitely would have gone had I known - so fascinating!

Personally, I love the juxtaposition. Fond memories of meeting friends on the steps of the Opéra when I lived & worked in Paris as a teaching 'assistante' a number of years ago - how I wish I'd had the courage (& cash) to go in! Definitely planning a visit next time I'm there.

Ah, how many Paris paths begin with the words "assistante de langue" (me twelve years ago!). Yes, next time! I think they still hold affordable last minute tickets you can get in the hour before the performance. Otherwise, the only way I've managed to snatch affordable tickets is to commit to a subscription, a happy constraint on my end :)

A good tip to try for last-minute tickets. Perhaps most people will be watching the Olympics...
