R&B & hip hop classics. Played live on classical instruments — violin, sax and piano — among thousands of candles.
Reception first.
Then the room
goes dark.
Doors open at six for a drinks reception. Once everyone is in, the lights go down and the music starts — live sets with intermissions at the bar in between.
You are seated among the candles, not behind a barrier. It is an intimate room, so nobody is far from the music. Couples, birthdays, and the friend who says they don’t like classical music.
