CHRISTMAS BY CANDLELIGHT

A winter journey through the music and landscapes of northern Europe.

Royal Northern Sinfonia brings together haunting Nordic folk melodies and music for strings, travelling from the atmospheric beauty of Sibelius to Grieg’s much-loved music for Peer Gynt.

Inspired by age-old traditions and mixing familiar masterpieces with discoveries and traditional Scandinavian melodies, this is music full of atmosphere and warmth, made for a winter’s night and heard in the flickering glow of candlelight.

Sibelius · Grieg · Karłowicz · Rautavaara · Scandinavian folk music

Glögg and pepparkakor available in the interval

“There’s no better chamber orchestra in Britain” – The Guardian ★★★★★
