Concert in a sea of candles
US pop star Taylor Swift at the Hotel Sacher
Taylor Swift fans have reason to rejoice! They will soon be able to listen to the hits of their idol in Salzburg. On November 23 at the Orangerie in the Hotel Sacher.
The string quartet "Constanze Quartet Salzburg" will bring the hits of the US megastar to the city of Mozart in a string version. And there will be another highlight on top: "Lots and lots of candles for an atmospheric ambience," reveals violinist Emeline Pierre Larsen.
The tribute to Taylor Swift will take the form of a candlelight concert surrounded by a sea of candles. "For safety reasons, however, only LED candles will be used, not real ones," says Pierre Larsen.
The idea for the unusual pop concert in a classical format came about due to popular demand. "We usually play Mozart, Italian baroque music or works by film composer Hans Zimmer. But it's also a lot of fun to prepare pop music in a classical version. How the pieces work in the end depends very much on the arrangement," says the violinist about the preparations.
The Salzburg-based women's string quartet will soon be taking Taylor Swift's songs on the road outside Austria - a Europe-wide tour is planned. A promoter based in Spain has signed the four ladies and is coordinating their future performances by candlelight.
