Heavenly concerts
WE Will Rock You is just one of the legendary Queen songs featured in the new Tribute Concert in Cairns next week.
The difference is that the Tribute to Queen is a Candlelight Concert – where people all around the world enjoy live music in a unique way, set in unforgettable locations illuminated by candlelight.
The extra Candlelight Concerts next Thursday, September 14 were added after the high demand and packed concerts at Saint Monica’s Cathedral in Cairns last week.
Following success achieved in more than 100 cities worldwide, the live musical experience of Candlelight Concerts has proved to be a major hit at this Cairns debut.
Next week’s two Candlelight Concerts will be held at Saint John the Evangelist Anglican Church at 177 Lake St with Candlelight: Tribute to Queen at 6pm and Candlelight: Tribute to Coldplay at 8pm.
Next month the experience will return to Saint Monica’s Cathedral on Thursday, October 19 with Candlelight: Vivaldi’s Four Seasons at 6.30pm followed by an additional concert at 8.30pm, Candlelight: Best of Hans Zimmer.
On November 9 there will be two Tribute to Queen Candlelight Concerts, also at Saint Monica’s Cathedral, at 6.30pm and 8.30pm. Global live-entertainment discovery platform, Fever are promoting the Cairns concerts dedicated to the iconic music of Vivaldi, Queen, Hans Zimmer and Coldplay played by the local String Quartet Group courtesy of violinist Khalida De Ridder.
“The concerts enable a broader audience that might have never considered a classical music concertbefore to connect with the most iconic pieces of the greatest composers and listen to the top hits of well-known artists in a different way,” a Fever spokesman said.
