Beethoven by candlelight at Kensington United Reformed Church – London, United Kingdom

See Beethoven by candlelight Live in London on Saturday, March 28, 2026, Doors Open at 18:30

The unique concert will take place on March 28th at Kensington 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 lightened by a flicker of hundreds of candles.

Ludwig van Beethoven is 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.

By his late 20s, Beethoven began to lose his hearing — yet he never stopped creating. In fact, many of his most celebrated works, including his symphonies, late quartets, and piano sonatas, were written when he was profoundly deaf. His resilience, vision, and defiance of limitation continue to inspire generations.

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!
