Preconcert or intermission whiskey and scotch tasting included in your ticket!
Spend a merry evening with the Arapahoe Phil exploring the influence of Scotland on classical music. Travel the beautiful, rolling landscape of Scotland through Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony. Feel the rhythm of Scottish folk music in Malcolm Arnold’s “Four Scottish Dances,” and hear a legendary epic in Scottish composer Thea Musgrave’s “Song of the Enchanter.” Then raise a glass with Brahms’ “Academic Festival Overture”- an irreverent potpourri of drinking songs written for a university that awarded Brahms an honorary doctorate. From toe-tappers to glorious melodies, this concert has it all!

I thoroughly enjoyed the music but missed not having a regular program at the concert. Not everyone uses his/her phone during the concert to find that information. Also, the promotion inferred drinks as “Scotch whisky” but basically the vendors had American whiskey (note the difference in spelling, product taste and origin.)
Hi Shirley,
Thanks for attending the concert! Unfortunately, the Lone Tree Arts Center was not allowing paper programs as a COVID safety measure, so we were not able to provide them. The tasting was promoted as Whiskey and Scotch because we weren’t sure which vendors/distilleries would decide to participate. In the end we were only able to get American Whiskies, but we did have several malts available. I hope you enjoyed the tasting otherwise!
Have a great day!
