CANDLELIGHT CONCERTS

a featured ensemble for the global concert phenomenon, performing under the glow of thousands of candles in london’s most iconic landmarks.

City String Ensemble is a long-standing featured performer for the world-renowned Candlelight Concerts series. Performing regularly at prestigious venues such as Central Hall Westminster and Southwark Cathedral, we bring a vibrant energy to the stage that has made us a favourite of London audiences.

Our curated programmes celebrate the greatest hits of global icons and cinematic masterworks. From the soulful melodies of Adele and Beyoncé to the epic scores of Hans Zimmer, Lord of the Rings and Studio Ghibli, our arrangements recreate the spirit of the original songs with the technical precision of a professional string quartet.

Whether we are performing the era-defining hits of The Beatles, Queen, and ABBA, or modern favourites like Taylor Swift, Coldplay, and Bridgerton songs, our shows are defined by a unique vitality that resonates with every guest. It is this signature energy that brings our audience back time and again, and has led many to trust us with the music for their own weddings and private celebrations.

To see us perform live at our next candlelight concert, please see our live performance schedule.
