SUMMARY:Wine and Classical Piano Pairing Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join Marnie Old\, one of the country’s leading wine authors\, for a remarkable seated and guided wine tasting experience like no other where she teams up with a talented young pianist\, Sebastian Picht. \nMarnie will pair a diverse range of international wines with a crescendo of Sebastian’s performances of compositions by Bach\, Beethoven\, Schumann and Ravel that span three centuries. Guests will explore the unexpected connections between taste\, scent\, sound and emotion that are evoked by soulful wines specifically chosen to harmonize with the music. \nYou won’t want to miss this unique experience of the rich tones of our elegant Bösendorfer grand piano in one of our city’s most under-recognized acoustic venues: the historic Barthelmes Auditorium of the German Society of Pennsylvania. \nNOTE: Wine Pairing Experience tickets include main floor auditorium seating and a flight of 6 wines. Concert Only tickets for both events offer balcony seating with no beverage accompaniment. \n~ \nABOUT MARNIE OLD Author and sommelier Marnie Old is one of the country’s leading wine experts and a breath of fresh air in the wine trade.
