Music in Paris from Hector Berlioz to Claude Debussy, spanning from 1830 to the early 1900s. Paris, known as the City of Light, is illuminated by many musical stars.

In this edition of Exploring Music, Bill McGlaughlin discovers what made luminaries such as Georges Bizet, Charles Gounod, and Charles-Valentin Alkan shine.
