Medium Rare Special Edition to Bring Spanish Techno and Italian Neoclassical Music to Manila

The acclaimed immersive event series Medium Rare returns with a new Special Edition on Saturday, May 9, transforming Salon de Ning at the Peninsula Manila into a multi-sensory night where music, gastronomy, and art converge.
Running from 7:00 PM until 4:00 AM, the one-night event will unite international and local artists in an elegant cross-cultural experience designed to introduce new sounds and artistic dialogue to Manilaʼs nightlife and cultural community.

With limited tickets available, the event promises an intimate yet vibrant atmosphere for music lovers, creatives, and tastemakers.

This special edition will feature Spanish electronic music producer Pablo Bolívar, known internationally for his hypnotic blend of techno and ambient soundscapes. With more than two decades in the underground electronic scene, Bolívar has built a reputation for his deeply melodic productions and atmospheric live performances, as well as for founding influential labels Seven Villas Music and Avantroots Records.

Joining the lineup are Italian musicians Lorenzo Travaglini and Davide Semmarchi, representing Bosco Studio, whose contemporary neoclassical compositions blend classical piano traditions with modern cinematic textures. Their appearance marks their first visit to Asia, where they will not only perform but also engage with the local music community through cultural and educational initiatives.

Beyond the stage, the collaboration reflects Medium Rareʼs mission to foster cultural exchange through music and creative experiences. During their stay in Manila, the Italian artists will participate in workshops at universities, designed for young musicians and music students eager to explore new forms of composition and artistic collaboration.

A Curated Cultural Experience
“Medium Rare is a curated sensory experience that unites three worlds — music, gastronomy and art. This unique event brings together Manilaʼs food lovers and music crowd into one sophisticated, flavorful and unforgettable experience.”

The concept behind Medium Rare is to blur the boundaries between cultural disciplines, creating an immersive environment where audiences can experience live music, culinary creativity, and artistic expression simultaneously.

Expanding Cultural Horizons
One of the organizers shared that this edition of Medium Rare aims to broaden cultural perspectives by bringing together artists from different parts of Europe and the Philippines. “This time we are bringing Spanish and Italian artists with the support of two embassies and the Philippine–Italian Association to expand the perspective of our guests and blend cultures to create something entirely new.”

For the musicians of Bosco Studio, the trip represents both a professional and personal milestone. “This will be our first visit to Asia. We are excited to discover Filipino culture, explore the local music scene, and collaborate with Filipino musicians to create something together.”
