Historic Edinburgh venue to host music concerts by candlelight this summer

Locals will get to enjoy one-of-a-kind music concerts by candlelight at an historic Edinburgh venue in the coming weeks.

St Mary's Cathedral will play host to three different events across July and August which will see musicians perform 'under the gentle glow of candlelight', to deliver the 'magic of a live, multi-sensory musical experience'.

Firstly, a classical music concert showcasing A Tribute to Ludovico Einaudi will be held on Wednesday, July 13.

Later in the month, on Friday July 22, Hans Zimmer's Best Works will feature the likes of Time from Inception, This Land from The Lion King as well as songs from Pirates of the Caribbean.

Then, on August 5, the Edinburgh landmark will be the atmospheric setting for A Tribute to Fleetwood Mac, with all the classic tracks including Dreams, The Chain and Rhiannon on the set list.

Organisers say guests will 'enjoy concerts illuminated by candlelight and performed by live musicians at one of the most iconic venues in Edinburgh.'

Tickets for each show are priced from £15.
