Watch Moonlight Sonata at Christmas in Harrogate

Treat yourself and your loved ones to a special pre-Christmas musical evening in the exceptional candlelit setting of the Wesley Centre, Harrogate.

Acclaimed British concert pianist Warren Mailley-Smith will perform a selection of popular and powerful piano works, including Beethoven’s much-loved Moonlight Sonata with additional exceptional works by Chopin, Debussy and other great composers . Whether you're a classical music enthusiast or simply looking for a unique way to celebrate the festive season, this concert promises a warm and uplifting experience in one of Scotland’s most iconic venues.

In 2016, Warren Mailley-Smith became the first British pianist to perform all of Chopin’s solo piano works from memory in an 11-concert series at St John’s Smith Square—an achievement praised by critics as extraordinary. He has performed at prestigious venues including Wigmore Hall and Carnegie Hall, and has given numerous performances for the British Royal Family. One of the UK’s most in-demand pianists, he gave over 200 concerts last year alone.

The concert is designed to fit perfectly with your evening plans, with a wealth of restaurants and bars nearby to complete your night.
