Surround Sound Salon | Spain

A distinctive blend of diverse cultural traditions animates the music and wine of Spain. Across four pairings, we'll explore how place shapes expression on the Spanish part of the Iberian peninsula.

We'll hear how Spanish composers use a distinctive harmonic, melodic, and rhythmic language shaped by centuries of cultural exchange on the Iberian Peninsula. It's a musical vocabulary that persists to this day, reflecting nearly eight centuries of Muslim rule, Christian monarchies, the intermingling of people of different faiths, and the traditions of Andalusia, flamenco, and the guitar.

Our wines feature some of the best-known grapes from Spain, but in ways you don't typically encounter them, setting up a tasting with a mix of introductory and deep cuts vibes.

As always, the music and wine anchor the program, but invariably serve also as launchpads to explore Spanish art, culture, history, and more.

No expertise in music or wine required. Curiosity encouraged.
