'The story of Paris's Philharmonie is typical of a France that grumbles, before letting go'
The Philharmonie de Paris, once facing significant opposition, now celebrates its 10th anniversary as a leading symphony hall, recognized for attracting a young and diverse audience. Initial resistance stemmed from concerns over relocating from the traditional Salle Pleyel to a new venue in the less affluent 19th arrondissement.

Critics were skeptical about the hall's ability to draw audiences from wealthier areas, fearing it would alienate classical music lovers. Despite these challenges, the Philharmonie has emerged as a cultural success, showcasing the evolving landscape of Parisian music.
