Dearest Reader,
An event of the most captivating proportions trumps the ton’s latest misdeeds for today. I have been informed that Candlelight x Bridgerton in Boston sees a skilled ensemble perform music from the period drama’s soundtrack. A string quartet reworking modern-day hits into instrumental covers — sound familiar? That’s because it wouldn’t be a ball in Mayfair without songs like Sia’s “Cheap Thrills” hitting bowed string instruments. Discover the Candlelight series’ latest program for a soirée that even Her Majesty wouldn’t miss.
But make haste and get your tickets before they’re all snapped up! After all, it’s not every day you hear “Give Me Everything” by Pitbull and others reimagined in the classical form. This unique live music experience is quite a rare jewel, indeed.
The Best of Bridgerton on Strings
I am taking it upon myself to reveal the circumstances of yet another unmissable Candlelight occasion.
In the glow of countless candles, talented musicians are prepared to transport audiences back to the early 1800s, back to their favorite on-screen moments, back to every juicy bit of drama and scandal as they work their classically-trained magic on contemporary hits. From Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” to Miley Cyrus’ “Wrecking Ball”, Bridgerton’s superfans and even those who have not watched the series will feel a firework of emotions.
There’s something undeniably extraordinary about hearing pop music performed as pared-back classical notes. At the same time as witnessing tradition being brought into the modern era, audiences can revisit some of the steamiest and most memorable scenes on Bridgerton. As thousands of candles flicker, so too will the images of moonlight trysts, lavish ballrooms, Regency-era frocks, and eventful weddings.
Take a musical journey within the magnificent confines of Temple Ohabei Shalom. Every sight and sound will capture your heart and sweep you off your wannabe 19th-century aristocratic feet.
Let’s not keep this between us; spread the word among friends and family: the indisputable fact is that Candlelight x Bridgerton is the soirée of Boston’s season!
Yours truly,
Lady Whistledown
