Excerpt from Les Bals de Paris
Quelle symphonie composent pour un musicien les orchestres de tous ces bals! Après le jazz band qui fracasse et pile, et morcelle des airs exotiques, les pistons et les trombones entonnent des refrains où palpite l'âme mème de Paris, tandis que l'accordéon des bals musettes élève sa plainte nostalgique et reprend à sa façon des airs déjà entendus pour en faire quelque chose de tout nouveau, un chant amer et doux.
