Inner Circle - The People of Classical Music.

Paul has a PhD in Physics and is a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America. He is one of the few people in the world who can enjoy music from both aesthetic and mathematical perspectives. We catch Paul talking in a "hot mike" moment, about a remarkable sound sensing unit, the human ear. The sound quality isn't ideal, which maybe is a little ironic considering the speaker and the topic. We thank all the Inner Space musicians for their contributions to this bonus episode.

Dr. Paul Hines a Professional Sommelier designation (with honours) and is a member of the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers (CAPS). He holds postgraduate certifications as a French Wine Scholar (highest honours) from the Wine Scholar Guild, and as an Italian Wines Specialist (distinction) from the North American Sommelier Association. Paul also has a PhD in Physics and is a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America. Paul combined his passion for wine and music to pair wines for each of the Inner Space Concerts this season. Katelyn speaks with Paul about his process for pairing of wines with music and a number of other interesting topics.

Host Katelyn Wheaton talks with Martine Durier-Copp and Csaba Kanyasi from Flamenco en Rouge. Flamenco en Rouge brings together five internationally trained artists who are deeply committed to the purity and elemental intensity of flamenco music and dance. They are based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. They perform a highly emotional Jerez-style flamenco, the baile (dancing) closely reflects and integrates cante (singing), and gives expression to the words. Their Inner Space concert debut features classical guitar music with a passion! They bring a festive, colourful, and heartstring-tugging music by Spanish composers Rodrigo, Granados, Albéniz, and more! An alluring evening filled with blood-pumping music, dancing, and singing! They perform in the Inner Space concerts series on October 13th 2020 at St. George's Round Church - Halifax, Nova Scotia.
