Candlelight Valentine’s: Romantic piano tunes
Similarly to the literary movement, the Romantic period for music witnessed a change in the traditional form. Composers felt freer to write about universal themes, such as nature, mythology, exoticism, and love. The piano was front and centre because it allowed the expression of a range of emotions and subjectivity.
As Valentine’s Day draws nearer, Candlelight invites you to rediscover some of the greatest compositions of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century that leave us feeling moonstruck every time we hear their moving melodies. Played by a talented pianist, hear works by the virtuous Hungarian master Liszt, Debussy’s “Claire de Lune”, Chopin’s “Valse n°19 op. posthume B150 en La mineur”, and many more.
The most romantic of Candlelight concerts will win you over with their thousand-and-one sparkling candles and the sweetness of classical music. Share this moment with your soul mate or simply celebrate self-love and enjoy a magical evening. We couldn’t have dreamt of a more beautiful event to brighten up our hearts…
