Concerts by Candlelight 2025

Music that creates a warm glow during the winter chill.

Music from the past and present echoes through some of Scotland’s most awe-inspiring settings, in Scottish Ensemble's annual Concerts by Candlelight, offering a captivating musical adventure.

We 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.

A 75 minute performance to include music by JS Bach, Philip Glass, Caroline Shaw, Erkki-Sven Tüür and Valentin Silvestrov.
