Don’t miss these two romantic musical experiences coming to Northampton this Valentine’s season

Candlelight is a series of live concerts presented by leading tech platform Fever, with the aim of making classical music accessible.

Performed by talented local musicians in iconic venues illuminated by hundreds and thousands of candles, Candlelight creates an immersive and intimate atmosphere.

These performances have been attended by millions of guests in more than 40 countries worldwide, and two more will soon be enjoyed at the heart of Northampton.

Soon arriving in our town is a string quartet Valentine’s Day Special showcasing timeless love songs and film themes, and Best of Bridgerton on Strings featuring music from the beloved Netflix and Shondaland series.

The first event, held at The Guildhall from 6pm on February 13, will include reimagined classics like Unchained Melody, La Vie En Rose, Can’t Help Falling in Love and My Heart Will Go On.

During the Valentine’s season, they are also pleased to present the Best of Bridgerton on Strings concert from 8.30pm on February 14 at the Northampton Museum and Art Gallery. This features some of the most renowned songs from the series, as anticipation builds for the fourth.

This is not the first time these events have been offered in Northampton, and I had the pleasure of attending a candlelit Bridgerton concert in March last year.

The musical experience lit up the Northampton Museum and Art Gallery with hundreds of candles and transported guests to the Regency era of England.

With three seasons streaming on Netflix, and soon to be a fourth, Bridgerton continues to enchant audiences worldwide – and this special event offered a unique evening in a captivating setting.

The hour-long setlist covered classics from across all seasons, with narration from the quartet members to remind the audience of when each song was used.

The renditions of the songs by the talented quartet members were extremely relaxing and calming, especially as the stage was surrounded by LED candles.

This was my first experience of live classical music and I was left in awe of the fact that if you closed your eyes, it was as if you were listening to the songs directly from Bridgerton.

Tickets for the Valentine’s Day Special are available from £29 and can be purchased here, and tickets for the Best of Bridgerton on Strings start from £23 and can be purchased here.
