The Rock Orchestra By Candlelight are a band of classical musicians from the United Kingdom who transform rock and metal songs into dark symphonies. The group of 14 musicians regularly performs concerts bathed in an ethereal candlelit glow as they turn songs by AC/DC, Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Linkin Park and more into swirling, dark rhapsodies that bridge the chasm between metal, hard rock and classical music. In 2024, The Rock Orchestra will embark on a tour of their native U.K. as well as Europe and the U.S. to present their thrilling new 90-minute show.

First time visiting the Broward Center to watch The Rock Orchestra live! Great venue, accessible parking, wonderful crowd engagement, and best of all, a fantastic show! Classics from the great rock legends to contemporary musicians, The Rock Orchestra captures these elements for a night of exceptional rock.
This was such a fun night. The energy is upbeat, the atmosphere was so fun. When I was leaving, I heard sooo much "That is not what I was expecting but I really liked it."Feels like an understatement. I loved this and would absolutely go again.
The experience was awesome! Did not expect it would be as good as it was. To be honest, sounded better than many bands performing live. Very friendly for all ages. I hope they decide to go to other locations in WV.
The show was great and I wish we had seat closer to the show! From the pictures on line from the balcony the stage looked closer. It was nice to see the seats closer to the stage were not jammed on top of one another and I believe there was more elbow room there then in the balcony. Foe us being comfortable in our seats is what helps make a show and the balcony was not the place.
I really enjoyed it . I would have loved to have a program that listed the song titles and original artists.
Excellent, unique music event honoring classic songs with current favorites! The stage was amazing! Love those skulls! A must see show! A show i will see again if they come to the Hampton Roads area again! ❤️🎶❤️🎵❤️🎶❤️
The musicians and vocalists were fantastic. Great set list. Only critique was when the sax took the lead. The horns took away from the orchestral vibe of the strings. Overall, it was a super fun show that I would recommend to others!
Excellent....I didn't know what to expect but myself, husband and 22 year old daughter loved it.
I never thought that the mixture of Rock and an Orchestra could come out so amazing and powerfully beautiful. The musicians playing are quite the artists of their instruments including the singers of their voices. I would love to see them again when they come this way next time. Next time I will probably bring a friend or two and not just my Husband. Thank you for such an amazing experience.
Interesting concept - orchestral treatment of rock classics, heavy on violins and woodwinds. Particularly successful on Led Zeppelin, Hosier, and Cranberries material; particularly unsuccessful on Guns 'N Roses material. Smashing drummer. My wife liked it a lot, I liked it OK. Goth/Steam Punk regalia and Vincent Price stage set was bemusing, but explains the "by Candlelight"part of the title - electric tealights (it's easier) were everywhere.
It was fantastic, I will definitely be looking forward to seeing them again.
From start to finish, this show provides a captivating unique experience. Defined staging sets the mood for the majestic music by gifted artists. The Rock is familiar with a one of a kind twist that will have you along for the journey and taking an instrumental adventure. Did not want the performance to end!
The volume and the vocals overshadow the orchestra. I understand, and enjoy Metal, but it's more Rock than Orchestra. Also, the venue has awful acoustics.
I had such a great time at the show! I didn’t know what to expect going in, but it completely exceeded my expectations. My only regret is sitting in the balcony—I definitely want to be closer next time!
My daughter and I had a fantastic time. There was so much talent on that stage. We will definitely go see the Rock Orchestra again. Amazing!
Overall, amazing show. I am a huge rock fan. I was curious how they were going to manipulate the sounds of certain bands but they proved me wrong repeatedly. Highly recommended to everyone.
It was more than expected! The orchestra was amazing and the singers, well there is not enough to say but the violinist, she owned the stage and would you leaving thinking there was a guitar playing. The brass section was crisp and motivated, the drummer on beat and percussion on bell. All around the show was amazing and look forward to their return to Norfolk, VA!
Sound for show was great. So much talent. Venue was perfect for sound and smaller crowd. Parking easy...just wish show lasted a little longer :-) Lot of talent on one stage!
Impressed with classical instrumentals especially the lead violinist
