A dialogue between history and contemporary times
On September 4, 2026, the municipality of Barumini will become the stage for Malt Symphonies, an event aimed at enhancing cultural heritage through interdisciplinary engagement. The event takes place within the spaces of Casa Zapata, the historic residence of the noble Aragonese family that encloses, within its perimeter, the precious archaeological evidence of the Su Nuraxi 'e Cresia nuragic complex. The structure, an example of architectural integration between a 16th-century noble residence and a millennial site, offers a unique setting for a high-profile cultural appointment.
The museum route and regional excellences
The evening opening is set for 7:30 PM, at which time the Casa Zapata Museum Complex will be accessible to the public. Visitors will have the opportunity to take a guided tour through the nuragic remains, protected by a glass cover that allows for a stratigraphic reading of the ruins in a constant dialogue between historical civil architecture and the nuragic civilization. This moment of archaeological insight serves as the ideal premise for subsequent activities, aimed at combining the rigor of historical research with creative expression.
Musical and brewing perspectives
Starting at 8:30 PM, the focus shifts to the local production sector with the presentation and tasting of a selection of Sardinian craft beers. This section intends to highlight the evolution of the island's brewing sector, based on the use of local raw materials and refined fermentation techniques. The sensory experience reaches its completion at 9:00 PM with the start of the concert featuring internationally renowned musicians: Gavino Murgia, Daniele di Bonaventura, and Jarrod Cagwin. The trio proposes a repertoire that explores the connections between the ancestral sounds of the Sardinian tradition and the declinations of contemporary jazz, tracing a sonic path that merges with the evocative atmosphere of the archaeological site.
Logistical information
The event will be held at the Casa Zapata Museum Complex in Barumini. Access to the museum starting at 7:30 PM is free of charge. The craft beer tasting will begin at 8:30 PM, followed by the concert at 9:00 PM. For further information on access procedures and any necessary reservations, it is recommended to consult the official channels of the promoting body or contact the organizing secretariat directly.
