Classical music and wine certainly seem to go together; both seem like appealing ingredients in a high-culture night on the town. But the two seldom share such a link, given that most music halls don't sell alcoholic beverages. Correcting this oversight and filling the art-plus-alcohol void during the brief spell this spring when Crossroads galleries stopped serving liquor on First Fridays, the Kansas City Symphony created Classics Uncorked, at which wine tastings preceded performances. In this three-part series, held February 20, May 7 and June 11 at the Sprint Festival Plaza in Union Station, spectators sipped wines specially selected to complement the compositions.
