The workshop and gallery of the ancient musical instruments of the 17-18-19th century is that address in Paris you certainly want to know.
Shop's owner, André Bissonet, apart from being a reputed expert in antique instruments, is also an inimitable one-man band - he can play - and play well! - on every single and most peculiar instrument (many of which are genuine rarities) in his shop. He can even play melodies on his lips, and the sound is pretty impressive!
Next time you pass by the Place des Vosges, pay André a visit:
