Generously without borders, the Jazz and World Music programming at La Seine Musicale mixes different generations of artists with diverse musical influences: major international figures, jazz masters, and emerging artists, as well as unique encounters between the most explosive artists! Groove and improvisation are on the agenda!
Erik Truffaz is one of the leading figures in electro-jazz trumpet whose creativity has never dulled over the past decades. Known for his smooth and mellow sound, and for creating concise phrases that stand in stark contrast to showiness, Erik Truffaz has carved out his niche with an elegant groove, perfectly balancing acoustic and electric instruments. Surrounded by long-time collaborators such as Marcello Giuliani and Raphaël Chassin, with whom he has honed a true group sound, he performs the repertoire from his last two albums (Rollin’ and Clap!) dedicated to celebrating iconic film music. Music to which he brings a new twist and pulse (compositions by Nino Rota for La Strada, Philippe Sarde for César and Rosalie, Miles Davis with Ascenseur pour l’échafaud, and many others…). The Auditorium’s setting, with its intricately carved wood and garance red, is the perfect complement to his subtle musical explorations of the 7th art.

La Seine Musicale
La Seine Musicale is a music and performing arts center located on Île Seguin an island on the Seine river between Boulogne-Billancourt and Sèvres, in the western suburbs of Paris, France.
Adress: La Seine Musicale, Île Seguin, 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, France
Auditorium Patrick Devedjian
Nestled like a gem in a case of glass and wood, the Auditorium Patrick Devedjian is the centerpiece of our building. It can accommodate up to 1,150 spectators and is dedicated to acoustic music, featuring the greatest classical ensembles and musicians, foremost among them the resident orchestra: Insula orchestra.
Its appearance is open to interpretation: a bird's nest, a giant liner, "the ball"...
From the outside, its glass facade is protected and powered by a gigantic array of solar panels that moves in synchronization with the sun, overlooking the concrete liner.
From the inside, the 1,150-seat hall awakens our senses. Dedicated to classical music, jazz, and world music concerts, its light blonde wooden ceiling, cardboard tubes, and paper reveal all the secrets of the excellent acoustics of this stage.
Its Acoustics
Studied by the Nagata and Jean-Paul Lamoureux firm to ensure the best possible sound reproduction for the audience. All precautions have been taken to guarantee exceptional acoustics with the precision of a musical instrument.
Its Design
Modular, its vineyard-style arrangement creates a genuine proximity with the audience surrounding the artists. The interplay of lights, the beauty of materials (wood, mosaics, glass), and the 360° panorama are all designed to match the pleasure of the eyes with that of the ears.
Its design aims to create a sense of visual and acoustic intimacy shared between the audience and the musicians. The atmosphere of the hall is warm, with curved wooden walls and ceiling contributing to the hall’s unique sound identity. Access to the hall is provided on three levels by large suspended walkways offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. These are connected by large staircases forming a continuous promenade around the hall.
