Summary/Abstract: Dedication of the musical work to the temple has become a peculiar tradition of the French organ music of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. For Charles Tournemire, like many artists of that time, this inspiration resulted from the sense of communing with the unusual phenomenon in Western culture. Religious renewal, the emergence of mystical and esoteric trends, and the symbolist idea of the correspondence of the arts stimulated multidimensional interests of artists in the Gothic cathedral. The article examines the relation of artistic correspondence between the works of Tournemire and cathedrals, which he chose as the object of dedication.
