Paris Concert (also released in France as 3e Salon du Jazz, Paris, 1954, À Pleyel) is a live album by saxophonist and bandleader Gerry Mulligan featuring performances recorded at the Salle Pleyel in Paris in 1954 and released on the Pacific Jazz label.

During a 1954 trip to Europe Gerry Mulligan played several concerts in Paris at the Salle Pleyel to enthusiastic crowds, excerpts from which are heard on this CD and a second volume, issued separately. The baritone saxophonist is joined by one of his most stimulating musical partners, valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer; the quartet's rhythm section includes bassist Red Mitchell and drummer Frank Isola (who sticks to brushes). This CD and its companion volume should be considered among Gerry Mulligan's most essential recordings.

Ah,the Gerry Mulligan Quartet's complete, classic June 1954 Paris jazz concerts (including Vol. 2 also)! Superb recorded sound released on the European Vogue label. Pacific Jazz issued an abridged . LP of these performances in the late '50s, but these two CDs deliver the full, real deal. One person found this helpful.
