Your favorite host John Concepción takes you on a musical tour: from the Iberian Peninsula to Latin America with a tribute to Zarzuela and Spanish art songs from around the world.

A traditional Spanish genre, Zarzuela is written in an operatic style that incorporates arias, ensembles and dance. A pair of dancers from Ensemble Español will be featured!

Enjoy a musical and culinary sampling, seated on stage with the performers!
