About This Event

Sobremesa - Where Words and Music Meet at the Table is a multidisciplinary performance at Alba Flamenca. It is inspired by the Spanish tradition of lingering at the table in conversation after a meal.

Sobremesa is a multidisciplinary performance inspired by the Spanish tradition of lingering at the table in conversation long after a meal. Audiences create their own literary menu from a selection of Spanish and Latin American texts, each paired with a surprise musical response. Performed by flute and guitar, Sobremesa blends folk and classical music, from Bach to Flamenco and beyond. Each evening becomes a unique journey of intertwining arts, shaped by the audience. After the performance, we invite our guests to stay, share thoughts and let the experience unfold together. Making its UK premiere at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2026, the show follows warmly received performances that generated enthusiastic audience responses for its originality, intimacy and interactive format. More than a concert, Sobremesa is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply and share an experience together. In a festival known for its energy and abundance, it offers a rare moment of intimacy.
