Toulouse les Orgues of Toulouse, France, will celebrate its 20th anniversary festival October 6–16. This year’s theme is “Dialogue between Cultures.” This festival features not only organ recitals, but also events that merge the organ with other artistic disciplines and instruments.
The first weekend of the festival will feature “The Sultan’s Organ,” a program of music of Arab-Andalusian, Balkan, Turkish, and English traditions. Throughout the festival, performances on organs will be combined with traditional Japanese drums, the Estonian kannel, choirs, and a symphony orchestra. Special programs will feature artists who have participated in previous festivals and young artists. An open console day is also included.
