Schoenberg...and Chocolate?

Do you like chocolate? Do you like dark chocolate? Do you like new music? Earplay Board member and composer, Ben Sabey, has a theory about the relationship between those questions, and we're delighted to offer this special collaboration with San Francisco's acclaimed Dandelion Chocolate to explore his premise.

Discover complex flavors and powerful emotions in Dandelion’s single-origin chocolate – made with just two ingredients – paired with arch abstract expressionist Arnold Schoenberg's famed String Trio, Op. 45 — performed deftly by the Earplay String Trio. With music professor Ben Sabey and Dandelion’s curriculum director Stephen Durfee as your guides, you will embark on a journey through beautiful and challenging internal landscapes as you creatively and interactively engage with a wide variety of flavors, feelings, temperatures, and textures. Then end the evening with a palate-cleansing performance of Mozart’s Divertimento and a sweet treat!
