Jazz, folk, Latin, African and cross-cultural projects that move beyond one musical category.
Paris by Night / Live Music / Ménilmontant
Studio de
l’Ermitage
A different rhythm of Paris: world music, jazz and intimate concerts in the bohemian heights of Ménilmontant.
01 / The spirit of the place
Where music crosses borders.
Not every Paris night begins with a velvet rope. Some begin with a winding walk uphill, a room full of anticipation and the first notes of a band you may never have heard before.
Studio de l’Ermitage is a welcoming independent venue where jazz meets folk, Latin rhythms, African and Caribbean music, and adventurous collaborations. The programme is eclectic; the connection between musicians and audience is the constant.
02 / An evening here
Close to the music.
There is room for the unexpected here. One night calls for quiet listening; another finds its pulse in percussion, dancing and shared energy.
The former industrial setting adds its own character: intimate rather than imposing, creative rather than polished.
THE EXPERIENCE / LIVE MUSIC • WORLD SOUNDS • JAZZ
A former industrial space with a neighbourhood spirit and a close-to-the-stage experience.
From seated listening sessions to lively, danceable performances, depending on the programme.
03 / Plan your visit
The practical details.
TLC Paris tip: Read the individual concert description before booking. The atmosphere can change dramatically from one performance to another, and the walk through Ménilmontant is uphill.
