Programme Note
Enjoy an exceptional candlelit concert this Christmas in the stunning setting of St Giles' Cathedral in the heart of Edinburgh's Royal Mile. Celebrate the season with Vivaldi’s iconic masterpiece The Four Seasons, brought to life as you’ve never heard it before. This vivid and revolutionary work captures the changing moods of the year, while a carefully chosen programme of classical masterpieces —including Handel's Arrival of the Queen of Sheba and Bach's much loved Piano Concerto in D minor, creates the perfect soundtrack for a magical winter evening.
Performed by the acclaimed Piccadilly Sinfonietta with renowned concert pianist Warren Mailley-Smith and a leading violin soloist to be announced, this special Christmas concert promises an evening of elegance, inspiration and festive charm. With over 200 performances each year, the ensemble—featuring some of the UK’s finest classical talent—has become a beloved presence on the British music scene, renowned for its sparkling interpretations of the baroque, classical and early romantic repertoire.
