Concerts by Candlelight

Music that creates a warm glow during the winter chill.

About the event

Music from the past and present echoes through Crichton Church in Scottish Ensemble’s annual Concerts by Candlelight, offering a captivating musical adventure.
 

Scottish Ensemble will take you on a journey by candlelight that explores new musical paths and connections including music by JS Bach, Philip Glass, Erkki-Sven Tüür and Caroline Shaw. A brand new work by Valentin Silvestrov, a Ukrainian composer currently living in exile in Germany, will receive its UK premiere. Known for music of serenity and transcendence, Silvestrov’s new piece Moments of Memory VI, will perfectly complement this atmospheric and enchanting programme.
