A candlelight concert series is making a dazzling debut in Newcastle this January and February with a blend of live music and beautiful surroundings - such as a city museum - which are to be made even more attractive with a backdrop of flickering flames.
Following sell-out success, Fever, a live entertainment platform that creates immersive experiences, is bringing its classical concert series north with the aim of opening up access to music and involving local musicians and stunning buildings. And masses of candles are lit at the event to make the experience and settings even more magical.
For its city centre locations, it has chosen The Common Room at Neville Hall and Discovery Museum in Blandford Square to host the concerts and it is inviting audiences to enjoy the works of the greatest classical composers and modern compositions.
