Film Music by Candlelight with Fortissimi Quartet

📍 Military Circle Brașov

📅 October 18, 2026 🕖 7:00 PM

Fortissimi Quartet invites you to a new show from the Fortissimi Concerts series, in a spectacular setting, by the light of thousands of candles, dedicated to the fascinating universe of film music — a world of elegance, romance, adventure, and passion, where music tells stories that reach directly to the soul. This time, music becomes more than a concert. Sound, movement, and light meet in a show created for all senses.

Under the warm candlelight, the quartet's chords, the percussion rhythms, and the ballet choreographies will intertwine in a fairytale atmosphere, recreating the emotion and grandeur of some of the most beloved films in international cinema.

Alongside Fortissimi Quartet, Ionel Mocanu – percussion, will be on stage, whose interventions will amplify the force, drama, and energy of some of the most spectacular cinematic themes. The musical moments will be complemented by the expressiveness of dance through the presence of Fortissimi Ballet, under the guidance and choreography of Agathe Olah.

You will be able to listen to famous themes from Gladiator, James Bond, Pirates of the Caribbean, Schindler's List, The Phantom of the Opera, The Pink Panther, Game of Thrones, The Godfather, Love Story, Cinema Paradiso, Indiana Jones, Titanic, and many other productions that have made history.

Each piece will benefit from special arrangements for this artistic formula, signed by Fortissimi Quartet.

THE QUARTET'S STORY

The story of Fortissimi Quartet begins in 2017, at the initiative of violinist Bogdan Costache, with the desire to create an ensemble capable of bringing chamber music closer to the public, in spectacular and unconventional artistic contexts.

Today, Fortissimi Quartet is in continuous ascent, bringing together professional musicians who have performed concerts and events both in Romania and on international stages.

The ensemble's portfolio includes appearances such as "The Grand Ball of Princess and Princesses" – Monte Carlo, Monaco, the World Expo in Dubai, and the "Golden Stag" Festival – Brasov.
