For all you lovey-dovey Londoners out there, the Candlelight series is bringing out the big cheesy guns on February 16 and 17. So whether you’re waiting for the weekend to celebrate Valentine’s Day or just happen to be in the mood to spoil your significant other, these soul-stirring Candlelight concerts are the perfect romantic plan coming to the most romantic venues, St Stephen Walbrook and Southwark Cathedral.
Talented musicians are set to take to the hallowed, historic stage on which they’ll reimagine songs by the likes of Elton John, Edith Piaf, The Beatlesand more. And if that wasn’t passion-filled enough, there’ll also be renditions of music from classic filmsincluding the oh-so-charming Paradise cinema.
From holding hands while exploring an exciting exhibition and indulging in some rich chocolates and red velvet sponge cake to trying one of those themed menus featuring the inevitable oyster or glass of champagne, there are plenty of ways to celebrate the day of love in the city. However, sitting in a candlelit setting and listening to songs that melt hearts performed on strings is up there as one of the best alternatives.
Candlelight will show you “a whole new world” of love-themed notes this Valentine’s Day season. Pull your special someone closer and let them put their head on your shoulder as you take in Edith Piaf’s “La Vie En Rose”, Elton John’s “Your Song”and Por Una Cabeza from Scent Of A Woman. For who better to get inspired by than the likes of heart-throb Al Pacino and experts in songcraft?
