Candlelight: Timeless Composers at The Biltmore Los Angeles

Candlelight: Timeless Composers is a glowingly intimate classical concert where a live string quartet performs enduring masterpieces in elegant, candlelit ambiance, turning each familiar melody into a close-up, spine-tingling experience. The program is a greatest-hits journey through the canon—moving from the bright rush of Vivaldi’s “Spring” and the calm clarity of Bach’s Cello Suite No. 1 Prelude to the effortless charm of Mozart’s Eine kleine Nachtmusik, the thunder-and-lightning drama of Beethoven’s Fifth, and the sweeping romance of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake—with crowd favorites like Brahms’ “Hungarian Dance No. 5,” Liszt’s “Liebestraum,” “Nessun Dorma” from Turandot, the “Habanera” from Carmen, Debussy’s “Clair de Lune,” Ravel’s rhythmic brilliance, and Rachmaninoff’s soaring “Vocalise” rounding out an hour that feels timeless, cinematic, and completely transportive.
