What it is / What you'll see
Candlelight offers a different way of listening to Michael Jackson: a string quartet, a space lit by candles and a repertoire of greatest hits. The provisional programme includes 'Human Nature', 'Billie Jean', 'Say Say Say', 'We Are the World', 'Man in the Mirror', 'Smooth Criminal', 'Black or White', 'Heal the World', 'Earth Song', 'They Don't Really Care About Us' and 'Thriller'. The concert lasts about 60 minutes and the organisers point out that it is a tribute with no official connection to the artist or his estate. It is a relaxed outing for pop fans who want to rediscover very well-known songs in an acoustic format. In Córdoba there are sessions between 30 October and 14 November 2026.
