Candlelight continues to delight Stockholm audiences with these phenomenal classical concerts inspired by some of the greatest artists of all time. Having already been hosted by some of the city’s most unique venues, including the world’s oldest open-air museum, Skansen and the historic Norra Latin, the Candlelight series’ trademark sea of candles are taking over the iconic Eric Ericsonhallen in the middle of the city as well as the vibrant music hub Musikaliska.
This spring, piano melodies and the sounds of string quartets will be filling the city and making the most of its famed venues. Breathtaking architecture, talented musicians, and hundreds of flickering candles combine to form an atmospheric performance you won’t want to miss.
Eric Ericsonhallen: A Historic Concert Hall
Built between 1823-1849, the church replaced a small wooden church that had been destroyed by a fire in 1822. The neoclassical temple was inspired by the Pantheon in Rome and designed by the architect Fredrik Blom. Plain white walls, a coffered ceiling, and temple-shaped lantern light are some of the spectacular features contributing to its charm. A building well-acquainted with orchestras and classical music, Eric Ericsonhallen provides the perfect setting for intimate Candlelight concerts.
Candlelight is an experience unlike any other, and you won’t want to miss out. And this is especially true when you combine the talented musicians with a setting lit only by the glow of a sea of candles.
Watch this space and look out for more enchanting Candlelight concerts coming to unique venues across the city.
