Classical, Neoclassical & More

A magical concert woven from the music of dragons, hobbits, witches, warriors — and the legends they leave behind.
On February 27th, hear the ancient sounds within the walls of Kensington United Reformed Church in the heart of the royal borough of Kensington and Chelsea. The soaring strings of Khaleesi’s theme… the whisper of a Ring’s curse… the shimmer of Elven melodies from the shores of Valinor lightened by a flicked of hundreds of candles.

This is not just a concert. It is a musical portal into the greatest fantasy worlds ever imagined — from Middle-earth to Westeros. In the hands of the acclaimed Mystery Ensemble, every note becomes a spell, every crescendo — a clash of destinies.

Let yourself be guided by the music through: the shimmering sorrow of The Rings of Power (music by Bear McCreary), the battle cries and lullabies of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon (music by Ramin Djawadi), the hopeful themes of hobbits and fellowship (music by Howard Shore) — and so much more.

Performed without vocals or narration, this concert speaks the purest language — music — awakening the fantasy within us all.

The concert organisers are the creative agency RED EVENTS & Distribution Ltd, which produces exceptional cultural events in ancient mansions, on rooftops, in greenhouses, and in other most atmospheric venues across the UK, Europe, and other countries. Also, in the repertoire – a collection of concerts by candlelight and with complete immersion in the space of video art and sound.
