Imagine being enveloped in the warm light of thousands of candles that gracefully dance to the sounds of violins, cellos and violas. This extraordinary display has the ability to convert any space into an enchanting setting. It makes for an unforgettable experience you can only share with those that have witnessed such a sight.

What mainly makes these enchanting performances really special, are the talented musicians who effortlessly command their instruments. These musicians are highly trained and skilled in their craft and perform with passion for the art form. Watching them evokes a range of emotions, from joy and melancholy to excitement and sorrow.
Candlelight introduces the works of timeless composers to a wide audience
Another reason Candlelight has proven popular is that it’s brought notable classical composers within reach, which unfortunately hasn’t always been the case in the past. These are maestros, whose music has endured for centuries. And that is all because of their artistic brilliance, pushing the boundaries of their art and innovating the world of music. For this reason, you can always expect tributes to the likes of Vivaldi, Bach and Tchaikovsky.
Although it’s not all just classical music
Besides tributes to classical greats, you can also catch performances by contemporary jazz, rock, pop, and soul artists, including Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Queen and many more!

We often go to concerts to hear our favorite songs but sometimes we have no idea what the artists are singing or writing about. A treasured aspect by attendees of these intimate concerts is the chance to gain new insights about the performed songs, the circumstances during which they were written or about the lives of the tribute artists. The musicians often engage in entertaining conversations with the audience, blending education with entertainment.
