Scores & Pours

Scores & Pours is heading to California on a road trip which got us on the topic of classical music playlists for the car and naturally, canned wine (not while one is driving, of course). Find a wine list, a playlist and support Scores & Pours on Patreon.

Wine has inspired and/or is the subject of many works of, in this case, visual art. Flip flop and we discover one of Russia’s most famous compositions for piano (and later orchestra) created after viewing rare and somewhat obscure paintings. You can see a playlist, wine list and support Scores & Pours on Patreon. There's a link there to buy merch too!

Gods & Goddesses are highly embedded historically or inspired by  musical composition and wine/beer. In this episode, we’ll dive into the history of Dionysus, Ninkasi and then some along with listening to some of our favorite compositions that muse on gods/goddesses of yore. You'll find a link to buy merch, a beer list and a playlist on Patreon.

In this episode, Emily dissects some of her favorite shorter compositions and Jill plunges into her favorite place for wine, natural Spain. You can find a lengthy wine list and a playlist, as well as support us financially, on Patreon.

Minnesota is full of musical & fermented riches. Listen in as we gush about our local (Minneapolis/St. Paul) orchestras and a cidery we just had to interview (our first collaborative effort)! See a cider list, music list, and support Scores & Pours on Patreon. Buy hoodies & tees too!

Harvest is a most special time of year - grapes are collected and turned into nectar of the gods. Listen in as we explore harvest-inspired compositions as well as talk about harvest time and festivals around the world. You can BUY MERCH, see a playlist, wine list and support Scores & Pours on Patreon.

When is too much too much when it comes to elements of wine (think oak, aromas, acidity, and more!)? There can definitely be too much when it comes to composition in classical music… In our humble opinions, of course. You can find a link to buy merch, see a playlist, wine list and support Scores & Pours on Patreon.

September/October means it’s time to sip an emblematic beer known as Oktoberfest. Pair this up with some autumnal classical music (& maybe some brats) and you have a marriage made in heaven. Oh wait, isn’t there a song that states, “In Heaven There Is No Beer...”? That is why we drink it here on Scores & Pours. You'll find a playlist and a beer list on Patreon, and support us there too.

Classical guitar is often not included in the classical music repertoire. Why the hell is that? What wine pairs best with this magical sound? Find out in this episode of Scores & Pours. Support us and see a playlist and sherry list on Patreon.

Who doesn’t think of the gin & tonic when “tonic” is mentioned? Did you know it has musical meaning as well? Don’t even get us started on g&t/musical garnishes… What started out as two episodes has been melded into one. Tune in as we feature TONIC & GARNISH. Find a tonic list, a playlist and other relevant links, and support Scores & Pours on Patreon!
