I talk a fair share about beer and food pairings but beer also pairs with music, especially the orchestral stylings of the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
Casual Fridays brings the beer to the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Not just any beer but beer from the Los Angeles County Brewers Guild members.
For the price of a ticket you get a concert, “usually shorter and without intermission”, Then a Question and Answer phase called TalkBack with the artists or you can head out to BP Hall with the musicians and other concertgoers to sample local craft beers …”on the house!”
The full beer season has yet to be solidified but for the October 7th concert, Indie Brewing and Strand Brewing will be featured.
Here is the set list from the music side: “This year’s series includes music by Ravel, Stravinsky, Mozart, Brahms, and Haydn. Conductors include Gustavo Dudamel, Pablo Heras-Casado and Mirga Grazinyte-Tyla. Soloists include Emanuel Ax, Stephen Kovacevich and Augustin Hadelich.”
