Description:
The Radford Theatre hosts the Candlelight Concert Series with a concert titled "Vivaldi's Four Seasons & More" on Saturday, July 13, 2024.

From barking dogs to summer storms, icy winters and birds chirping in spring, Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons is one of history’s greatest "program music" compositions.

Best known for his four-part masterpiece, it describes landscapes and scenes, evokes feelings and emotions and brings forth memories without the need for words. You know it without knowing you know it and it never tires, gets old or ceases to amaze. The program also includes recomposed versions of the famous masterpiece by French Romantic composer Jules Massenet and German-British post-minimalist composer Max Richter, as well as 'Libertango' written by Argentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla.

Candlelight is a series of concerts that are all performed by classically-trained musicians. Solo pianists, string quartets and other musical ensembles take to the stage to envelop and enchant audiences with a rich tapestry of sound all while hundreds, sometimes thousands, of LED candles flicker and twinkle and cast light onto the walls. It’s almost as if the flameless light magically dances to the notes being played.

Gone is the production element and from behind the studio effects, your favorite songs resound as you’ve never heard them before. It’s a sight and sound to behold, and one that you’ll want to experience again and again. Candlelight concerts bring the magic of a live, multi-sensory musical experience to awe-inspiring locations like never seen before in Radford.
