Temple Ohabei Shalom is welcoming sensational classical takes on famous love songs from iconic cinema classics, such as Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Romeo and Juliet, as well as other timeless compositions that capture the beautiful and unpredictable nature of love in the likes of Massenet’s “Méditation” and Tchaikovsky’s “Fantasy Overture”.

Candlelight: Valentine’s Day Special ft. “Romeo and Juliet” and more
Candlelight is bringing the works of some of the most influential artists to life at the Byzantine-Romanesque Temple Ohabei Shalom. With great mastery, they weave musical symbolism through the compositions, indicating the intensity of romantic passion and the transformative and at times, destructive nature of love.
From “Clair de Lune, L.32” by the French Romantic composer Claude Debussy to the 2001 Radiohead hit “True Love Waits”, let the gifted musicians of the Listeso String Quartet serenade you with the sweet melodies of timeless love songs and ballads.
This Valentine’s, give the gift of live music with an exceptional concert by candlelight. Whether you’re dedicating it to your die-hard bestie, new beau, long-term sweetheart or family member, there are few things that pull at the heartstrings with more power than live music.
There are two 60-minute performances taking place at Temple Ohabei Shalom, at 6:30 pm and 8:45 pm. Doors open 30 minutes prior to the start time, giving you plenty of time to find your seats.
