Scented & musical conference
Sunday, October 10 2021, 11:00 - 13:00
Eglise de Gesu
During the next Toulouse Les Orgues festival, at the Église du Gesu, we will have the opportunity to present a two-voice conference (organum) with Yves Rechsteiner, artistic director of the association.
It will take place on Sunday October 10, 2021 at 11 a.m. Entrance will be free.
On this occasion, as a procession, we will perfume the street “La rue des Fleurs” which leads to the Church of Gesu with floral and narcotic volutes, homage to the bicentenary of the birth (April 9, 1821) of the synaesthetic poet of “Fleurs du Mal”, Charles Baudelaire which continues to inspire OSMOART.
Correspondances
Nature is a temple in which living pillars
Sometimes give voice to confused words;
Man passes there through forests of symbols
Which look at him with understanding eyes.

Like prolonged echoes mingling in the distance
In a deep and tenebrous unity,
Vast as the dark of night and as the light of day,
Perfumes, sounds, and colors correspond.There are perfumes as cool as the flesh of children,
Sweet as oboes, green as meadows
— And others are corrupt, and rich, triumphant,With power to expand into infinity,
Like amber and incense, musk, benzoin,
That sing the ecstasy of the soul and senses.
