We loved the experience. We spoiled ourselves with Premium seats so were very privileged to sit close and see as well as hear the amazing Quartet. I would recommend the night to anyone who enjoys live music and I hope to attend another soon. Thankyou

Amazing!

Good set and brilliant atmosphere

Llandaff Cathedral, Cardiff was such a beautiful and atmospheric setting. The Northern Street Quartet was excellent. How can so few instruments make such a full sound? The whole experience was magical. I would highly recommend the Candlelit Events.

Lovely concert but at times I felt I needed the sound of an orchestra in some pieces. Would attend again though.

Performance was amazing, the acoustics in the catherdral made for an amazing atmosphere. Only downside is that sitting at the back meant you were unable to see any of the candles, which was a bit of a shame. However overall it was a brilliant evening

Seating arrangements could have been better and descriptions between pieces were hard to hear, otherwise great show with a fantastic atmosphere

What an incredible experience 👏

An exquisite evening. The acoustics. The musicians. The gentle warmth of the candle glow. &…THE MUSIC! sheer perfection.

Excellent (bit chilly, but great event)

The quartet were brilliant! It may be worth asking people to stay silent throughout at the start of the performance, I was sat next to someone who frequently spoke during the performance which tarnished the experience.

A magical evening. Completely mesmerised by the fantastic quartet and setting! Cannot recommend enough

Fantastic musicians and a beautiful venue for it

Excellent evening's entertainment.

My 11 year old son and I really enjoyed. Wonderful experience!
