Sheffield: Michael Jackson Songs by Candlelight

The King of Pop, reimagined. The songs you know by heart, heard like never before. What happens when you strip away the production, the beats and the spectacle, and return to the music itself? Discover the songs of Michael Jackson in a completely different light. In this unique, intimate piano and voice performance, the music is stripped back to its rawest elements: the melody, the lyrics, the harmonies and the emotion behind some of the greatest songs ever written. Surrounded by the warm glow of candlelight, familiar classics take on a new life. Every melody has room to breathe, every lyric takes on a new meaning. No recorded backing tracks. No imitation of the original production. Just one piano, one voice and the timeless music of the King of Pop, stripped back and reimagined. Don't just take our word for it… "Your piano arrangements were incredible and the pared-back nature of the performance actually enhanced the meaning of the songs." - Dan W.

Your piano arrangements were incredible and the pared-back nature of the performance actually enhanced the meaning of the songs with your beautiful voice doing justice to Michael" Dan W. "What a treat! We loved your amazing piano playing- best candle light performance I have been to. Our ages ranged from 48 to 84 and we all loved it - so nice to have a performer talk to his audience" Liz C. "My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed your performance, Will. We weren’t quite sure what to expect when we made the booking, but the songs, the setting and the atmosphere were perfect." Jason L. "This was amazing. Must admit our expectations were well and truly exceeded. This guy was fantastic." Alison C. "We thoroughly enjoyed last night’s concert - it wasn’t the usual “tribute artist” performance with recorded backing because whilst your replication of the vocals was brilliant, you had used your clearly exceptional skills and knowledge to rearrange the music for 1 piano for each track. Your unique arrangements showcased the brilliant music in a new light. Thank you Will." Anne S. "Such a lovely concert - the soundtrack to my university days played with total reverence to the beautiful songs. Took me right back! Not sure how Will managed to choose the tracks from such an extensive repertoire but they all fitted perfectly into the evening. Would definitely look out for further concerts like this in the future." Clare M. "What can I say!! Will - you are an exceptional talent... You didn't disappoint! And if I closed my eyes....you were Michael!!" Di M.
