Candlelight tribute concert with Halloween-themed classics performed by the Listeso String Quartet in the historic Short North Church.
Listeso String Quartet is taking over Short North Church on Thursday, October 29, for a Halloween-themed Candlelight concert. It's part of the Candlelight series, which brings live music into unusual spaces under the glow of candlelight—the series has played in more than 100 cities worldwide and recently expanded to Dayton. This particular night is a tribute to Halloween classics, so the program is built around music that fits the season.
The venue is Short North Church, a late 19th-century building in the Short North Arts District. It's a creatively renovated sanctuary that hosts a variety of gatherings, and these Candlelight shows are among them. The church's architecturally significant space provides an intimate setting for the performance, and the candlelight is as much a part of the experience as the music itself.
Listeso String Quartet handles the program, and the whole thing is a tribute concert, meaning it's not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the original artists, their estates, or official representatives. If you've seen a Candlelight show before, you know the drill: the music is the center, the lighting sets the mood, and the venue does a lot of the heavy lifting.
