Santiago concert by the "Otrente" chamber choir
2023-06-16 20:45 - 22:30 (Europe/Paris) | Basilica of St Clothilde, 23 bis rue Las Cases, Paris, 75007, France
¡ Vamos a Santiago!
Santiago” concert by the “OTrente” chamber choir
Under the direction of Louis Gal
We invite you to set off on the roads to Santiago de Compostela.
This pilgrimage will be punctuated by works of medieval and contemporary Spanish music, from Monserrat’s vermeil book to the centerpiece of this program, “Santiago” by Joby Talbot, composed in 2015.
We look forward to seeing many of you on June 14 and 16 at the Basilique Sainte-Clotilde!
This program evokes the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. It is structured as a journey along the Way of St. James, but also through the ages.
The program begins with a contemporary piece composed by Thierry Machuel, the text of which was written by a prisoner during writing workshops, and evokes the walk along life’s path.
The second piece is by an American composer, Joby Talbot, about the town of Roncesvalles, with evocations of medieval Spain and texts about Santiago de Compostela. We then move on to Catalonia, to Montserrat Abbey, with rewritten melodies from the Livre Vermeil. We then move on to Cordoba, playing pieces by Finnish composer Rautavaara, who also evokes a path in the dark.
We’ll end our journey in Santiago de Compostela, of course, with a performance of Joby Talbot’s Santiago.
The program is therefore quite eclectic, with pieces ranging from the 13th to the 21st century.
Specialization and light effects for this program to embody the journey present in the music.

Friday, January 19, 2024: Walking: personal development or spiritual journey?
Roundtable discussion moderated by Frédéric Rochet, Director of Forum104.
Walking is a way of getting to know oneself, of finding oneself, of healing: in our century of lost landmarks, paths have become the
preferred terrain for taking stock of one’s life. A proverb says, “A journey is going from oneself to oneself through others”. Could
be the answer to all our questions? A writer, a psychoanalyst and a pilgrim of Saint-Jacques will testify and
answer questions from the audience:

Jean-Guilhem Xerri, psychoanalyst, coach and supervisor; author of Prenez soin de votre âme (Cerf,2018), (Re)vivez de l’intérieur (Cerf, 2019) and La vie profonde. La santé spirituelle au quotidien (Cerf, 2021)
Patrick Tudoret, writer; author of L’homme qui fuyait le Nobel… jusqu’à Compostelle (Grasset, 2015; Mon Poche,
2018), En marchant. Petite rhétorique itinérante (Taillandier, 2023) and Petit livre de l’amitié (Salvator, 2023).
Blaise Pruvost, comic book artist; author of the graphic novel Six mois et un autre. Un chemin de
Compostelle (Steinkis, 2023)

At the end of the round table :
