Vivaldi by candlelight adds extra elegance to Blackpool's Grand Theatre
The theatre is playing host to a concert of popular works by the Italian composer Vivaldi and a number of other favourites.
To add to the sense of occasion, the beautiful Matcham theatre will be atmospherically candle-lit, while the virtuoso musicians of The Locrian ensemble will be attired in lavish period costume.
