A Spanish Journey: Concert Program

Presented by Music@Menlo

Music@Menlo is delighted to present A Spanish Journey on April 8 and 9, featuring artists from the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Grammy Award-winning soprano Jessica Rivera, and guitarist Oren Fader. The two-day residency, curated by violinist Kristin Lee, centers around gems of Spanish classical music, including de Sarasate’s virtuosic Carmen Fantasy, and rarely-heard piano trios by Granados and Turina. 

The first evening is an immersive exploration of Spanish music, dance, and culture, with live demonstrations from a colorful combination of violin, piano, voice, and classical guitar. The second evening is a full concert performance of the vibrant works explored. Both events take place in the Spieker Center for the Arts at Menlo School, and are also live-streamed, with discounted tickets for those under age 30.
