Paris ranks alongside New York as the world’s main centre of jazz performance. Innumerable US jazzmen have an ‘In Paris’ album in their back catalogue, but that is only one obvious sign of an enduring love affair between the city and the music. Miles Davis, in turn,wrote in his autobiography: ‘My first trip…changed the way I looked at things forever… I loved being in Paris and loved the way I was treated. Paris was where I understood that all white people were not the same; that some weren’t prejudiced.’ The affaire de coeur between Paris and jazz continues; here are 40 musical love letters to cherish.
