Valentine’s Day presents the perfect opportunity to take a pause and focus on someone special. Enjoy an a selection of classical music’s most romantic pieces of music ever written, from the worlds of film, opera and ballet. From scores inspired by Shakespeare’s tale of two star-crossed lovers, including Prokofiev’s powerful ballet suite and themes from the Romeo and Juliet films of Franco Zefferelli and Baz Luhrmann, to modern tearjerkers from Miss Saigon and Titanic, the evening is all set for your romantic rendezvous.
