The Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation celebrates music in its own way, on Wednesday June 21, 2023. Enjoy an exceptional, free session combining cinema and music, with a film accompanied by piano.

The Fête de la Musique is back for its 41st edition, for a maximum number of concerts and beautiful melodies all over the Île-de-France region! For one festive day on June 21, 2023, renowned musicians and amateur singers alike will be showcased at free events of all kinds, from classical music to jazz, electro and rap, with something for every music lover, indoors or out!

The Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé is planning an unusual evening mixing music and the seventh art, to delight movie buffs who love a good soundtrack! The Paris-based cultural institution, created in 2014 thanks to film-loving collector Jérôme Seydoux, is dedicated to preserving, restoring and promoting the cinematic heritage of Pathé, one of the world's oldest film studios!

It houses a vast collection of archives, including films, photographs, posters, costumes and objects from both short and feature films. The foundation regularly organizes exhibitions, film screenings, conferences and cultural events to promote film culture to the general public, including the Fête de la Musique! And we're taking this opportunity to discover the current program of events!
