Enjoy an exceptional candlelit classical concert in the beautiful setting of St Giles Cathedral.
This special concert features an exquisite programme of romantic piano masterpieces, performed by acclaimed concert pianist Annabelle Thwaite, renowned for her expressive touch and captivating artistry.This exquisite programme brings together some of the most lyrical and evocative pieces in the classical piano repertoire. From the gentle intimacy of Schumann’s Träumerei and the impressionistic shimmer of Debussy’s Clair de Lune, to the heartfelt beauty of Massenet’s Meditation from Thaïs, each work invites deep reflection and emotional connection. At the programme’s heart lies Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata—a timeless masterpiece of poetic intensity. Romantic highlights include Liszt’s Liebestraum No. 3, Chopin’s richly expressive Nocturne in D-flat, and Elgar’s tender Salut d’amour, while traditional favourites like Loch Lomond add a nostalgic, personal touch. With its blend of elegance, sentiment, and serenity, this recital promises an evening of profound musical beauty.
