Christmas by Candlelight

This concert brings the Baroque world vividly to life by Royal Northern Sinfonia and its Artistic Partner Maria Włoszczowska.

You’ll hear graceful violin lines of Leclair and Corelli, rich festive textures in Torelli and Locatelli’s Christmas Concertos, and the playful precision of Telemann and Handel.

Purcell’s music from The Fairy Queen runs through it like a thread – sometimes stately, sometimes rustic, always full of character.

Rameau keeps us on our toes, sweeping from elegant courtly dances to full-blown storms. It’s music that moves – physically, emotionally, and always with a bit of flair.
