About

The unique concert will take place onJune 13thatKensington United Reformed Church, located in the heart of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

Beethoven by candlelight is an evening where artworks of one of classical music’s greatest minds will be illuminated by a flicker of hundreds of candles.

Ludwig van Beethovenis often called the most influential composer in Western music history. Born in Bonn, Germany, he was a child prodigy whose talent brought him to Vienna, where he studied with Haydn and became known for his virtuosic piano performances. But Beethoven was no mere successor — he shattered the musical norms of his day and forged a path into emotional depth, structural innovation, and spiritual intensity.

Performed by virtuoso pianist Irina Lyakhovskaya, the programme brings together iconic early works and bold chamber arrangements that highlight Beethoven’s enduring brilliance.

Join us for a night where music and history come together in a special setting!
