The musicians were absolutely amazing. If I had any thoughts it would to be make sure the concert is during hours when the candlelight is effective. 7 PM in June only allows the total effect during the last half hour.

The musicians were amazing and the Lord of the Rings was so well suited to a string performance.

Candlelight Concerts never disappoints! The musicians are so talented and put on an engaging show. Though the music is enough of a reason to attend, candles add so much to the experience making it an immersive experience you won't soon forget. Highly recommend!
