Candlelight: Tribute to The Beatles

Candlelight: Tribute to The Beatles at Scottish Rite Performing Arts Center

The Beatles’ melodies do not need vocals to sound familiar; a string quartet lets you hear their shape anew. That is the idea behind Candlelight: Tribute to The Beatles, coming to Scottish Rite Performing Arts Center in Indianapolis on December 3, 2026, at 8:45 PM.

This is a live tribute, not an appearance by the original band, and that is exactly the point. A string quartet, with Listeso as the performing organization, reinterprets songs you've carried around for years. The announced program includes Penny Lane, Eleanor Rigby, Yesterday, Let It Be and Hey Jude, drawn from different parts of the Beatles' catalog. Hear them stripped to their bones and rebuilt in a new voice. You may catch a line or a harmony you never noticed before. Program and performers can change, but the promise stays the same: familiar songs, fresh ears.

It also fits easily into a night out. The advertised running time is about sixty minutes, so this is a focused, music-centered evening rather than a sprawling commitment. Bring someone who grew up on these songs, or someone you'd like to introduce them to. The glowing visual setting gives the room a distinct mood, and the music does the rest. If you want a December night in Indianapolis built around songs everyone knows, secure your seats for Candlelight: Tribute to The Beatles here.
