Enjoy an exceptional candlelit classical concert in the beautiful setting of St Mary's Cathedral.
Frédéric Chopin—often called the poet of the piano—crafted music of exquisite tenderness, longing, and beauty. From soul-stirring nocturnes to dazzling waltzes, his music speaks directly to the heart. Whether you're sharing the evening with a partner, a friend, or simply your own love for beautiful music, this special concert is the perfect way to mark the occasion.
Set against the majestic architecture and warm candlelight of one of Edinburgh’s most beautiful cathedrals, this romantic recital is a rare chance to experience Chopin’s timeless masterpieces in a truly enchanting atmosphere.
Enjoy a complimentary champagne reception before the performance, beginning at 6:50pm.
