What about the artistic life in London!?

There are so many things to tell about the Artistic Life in London !!

London could be actually renamed the “The Capital of Art”, because it groups together all the different kinds of art:

Music

Everybody will agree that a lot of famous bands’ went through London (The Beatles for example). And still today you find hundreds’ of little bands’ music every night in the pubs and in the clubs.

But what stroke me about the music here, it is the persons who are playing an instrument or singing in the tube. They are really numerous, and it is definitely not like in France where they are often beggars. Here we can hear some real musicians very talented. I heard that in London, you even have to pass an interview to be able to play in the tube.

Theatre

Theatre of course! If you have ever been in London, you must have seen everywhere some musical theatre poster. If you are looking for something to do a night, you really have to go to one of them. You can find a lot of movies adapted for musicals. And if you look for a ticket carefully, you can find some really cheap (the first price is relatively expensive).

Museums

London is the Museum Paradize! If you like going to museums, you will be verry glad here. First because all (or almost) the entrances are free. But also because you can a lot of verry interresting museums. My favourite for now are: The National Gallery, The Courtauld Gallery and The Tate Modern.

Fashion

I wanted to talk a little bit about the fashion in London, because it really surprised me when I arrived here for the first time. In France you clearly have a clothing fashion which changes over the years. But here, you have no fashion. My point of view is that the city is so cosmopolitan than finally nobody really imposed his style.

However, there is each in London the very famous Fashion Week (which occurred in February).
