Mozart - Piano Sonatas by Candlelight

Immerse yourself in the brilliance of Mozart, performed by acclaimed concert pianist Luke Jones in the awe-inspiring candlelit setting of St Giles’ Cathedral - the historic heart of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile.

Mozart’s piano sonatas reveal the full range of his genius - elegant, inventive, and emotionally rich. The Sonata in B-flat, K.281 sparkles with charm and lyrical grace, while the Sonata in D, K.311 balances playful energy with refined sophistication. Perhaps most famous is the Sonata in A, K.331, whose final movement, the exuberant “Alla Turca,” remains one of classical music’s most beloved pieces. Together, these works showcase Mozart’s uncanny ability to combine technical brilliance with profound expressive depth—each sonata a miniature masterpiece of clarity, wit, and timeless beauty.
