Absolutely magical performance of Richter’s Recomposition of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. The National Centre for Early Music is a wonderful venue.
The musicianship was excellent!

Attended the Mystery ensemble performance of what was described as Interstellar: tribute to Hans Zimmer, the tickets were nearly £30 each, the group was far too small, quiet & lacklustre for the venue of Chester Cathedral, we we're only midway back on the rows & it was so quiet, you could hear every chair squeak over the music, everyone looked bored, it was very mediocre, it felt like going to a school concert, that you would only enjoy if your child was playing. We left halfway, such a disappointment.

I really enjoyed the Four Seasons by Vivaldi concert in Sion. The atmosphere and the musicians were wonderful.

I went to see Hayao Miyazaki's Dreams and while it was my first concert experience, Mystery Ensemble did not disappoint.

Their renditions of Joe Hisaishi's pieces were an absolute delight to listen to and struck a chord within me. It is definitely a core memory and an unforgettable experience.

Everyone in the room seemed to really enjoy it and Mystery Ensemble set a really beautiful atmosphere. I hope they come back to Bournemouth I'm sure many people would love to listen again.

Thank you Mystery Ensemble :)

Visited Hayao Miyazaki concert, totally enjoyed! Musicians were on top, and very friendly staff. Would recommend

I've just got back from the Mystery Ensemble's performance of Howard Shore's music from the Lord of the Rings at Stoke Minster. This was marketed very professionally and cost £35 per ticket. Unfortunately the musicians were very amateurish. There were tuning issues throughout, numerous mistakes, a lack of dynamics and the performance was very stilted, with the commentary between pieces frankly woeful.

Having looked into the "Mystery Ensemble" since getting home, it appears different musicians are used at each event, which explains why it felt cobbled together and why it lacked any real energy. I wonder how much these musicians had actually rehearsed together. I feel a bit scammed to be honest. This would have been passable for a school performance and had I paid £5 I would have been happy, but the quality of musicianship was severely lacking at this price point.

Op vrijdag 13 februari naar Amsterdam vertrokken vol goede moed. Tim Burtons filmmuziek, je verwacht iets magisch, iets groots, een show. Dan komen er 5 of 6 'artiesten' op die een uur lang liedjes spelen. Wanneer we het idee kregen dat het mogelijk wat opzwepender zou worden, was t nummer afgelopen en na 1 uur was de hele show voorbij. Bij bijna iedereen in de zaal was verbazing, was dit het echt.
Nee, nooit meer. Wat een ontzettende tegenvaller! Gelukkig was mijn eigen gezelschap fijn en hebben we er 'later' om gelachen.

The performance was first class. My only complaint is that there was no information about the players or the background to the piece.

I attended the “Tribute to Howard Shore” concert at Durham Cathedral on 13 March 2026 and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience.

We purchased three Zone A tickets (over £36 each) specifically to have a good view of the performance. However, when we arrived, we were told there were no seats available in Zone A. We were left standing for around 15–20 minutes while staff tried to resolve the issue, during which time the concert actually began.

We were eventually seated behind a pillar in what appeared to be a restricted-view area, meaning we could barely see the musicians at all. This was despite paying for premium seating. Please also note, the “orchestra” advertised was 5 string instruments and a piano.

The situation was very poorly handled on the night, and what should have been a special evening was overshadowed by the organisation and seating issues. The volunteers at the cathedral told us they always oversell their events. Someone representing red events dismissed us as we stood waiting as he stated we weren’t VIP and he was “already dealing with someone else”.

Since the event, I have sent two emails to Red Events and received no response. I was also asked to contact them via Instagram but have not received any reply there either.

Overall, this felt like an oversold and poorly organised event, with very poor customer service afterwards. I would not book with this organiser again.

UPDATE:
Following the reply to my review, which states I contacted on a weekend, I would just like to add that I initially emailed Red events on the 15/03/26, and whilst yes this was a Sunday, there has been 7 working days since and I still have not had a response. I sent a second email on 20/03/26 at 11:42 (a working day) which again, I have no received a response to. On the 20th, I also commented on the Instagram to hopefully get a response, to which they replied to my comment on Sunday 22nd and asked me to direct message them, which I did the same day. I left my review yesterday evening 23/03/26 as another working day had passed and I had again heard nothing. I do not appreciate the tone as the company has had ample time to respond to me. I should not have even had to reach out on Instagram (which I did on the Friday and THEY responded on the Sunday).

26/03/26 update:
I have checked my email and spam and am unable to find any correspondence from Red Events. I have only been contacted on Instagram and trust pilot to say I will be contacted. Please advise on the email that has been used to contact me.

Absolutely love watching these multitalented musicians play and would love to see more events to attend real soon, they make my time comin more magical, sending so much love & appreciation to all that they do always 💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚😘💚🌹

Really enjoyed the Lord Of The Rings performance at Southwark Cathedral. Sat right at the front. Very beautifully played!!
Would love to go again!
Extremely friendly staff🩵

We went to see the Mystery Ensemble performing the Music of The Lord of the Rings at Southwark Cathedral in London. It was a beautiful performance from an intimate eleven piece orchestra and a delightful soprano, and who managed to bring the magic, beauty and rich deep tones to life without any of the bombastic horns and choirs. We’re looking forward to seeing them again.

A lovely, magical evening.
Beautiful location at Southwark cathedral in London. Great orchestra and soprano voice. Highly recommended!

The Candlelight concert featuring the music of Tim Burton was absolutely magical. From the very beginning, everything was beautifully organized from the warm welcome to the soft glow of hundreds of candles creating an unforgettable atmosphere.

The musicians were outstanding. They brought these iconic melodies to life with so much emotion and elegance that it was impossible not to be completely captivated. Each piece felt immersive and full of character, perfectly capturing the mysterious and whimsical spirit of Tim Burton’s world.

The atmosphere was simply enchanting. Sitting there surrounded by candlelight and music, we could have happily stayed there all evening, absorbing every note and feeling inspired. It was truly a beautiful and memorable experience.

I bought two tickets for “The Music of Harry Potter” scheduled for 5 December 2025 at the Grote Kerk in Dordrecht.

When I arrived at the venue that evening, the doors were closed and around 100 people were waiting outside. There was no staff present and no information provided at the location. Only later did it turn out that the event had been postponed.

I never received any notification email before the event. Red Events claims they sent one, but many people at the venue that night appeared to be equally unaware.

Since December I have repeatedly requested a refund for the tickets. The company refuses and only offers vouchers or alternative events, stating this is their “internal policy”. This ignores basic consumer rights, especially when the event does not take place on the agreed date.

Even after sending a formal legal demand for repayment, the company still refused to refund the tickets.

Another concerning detail is that the promotional artwork used for the event appears to be AI-generated. For a company operating in the arts and music sector, this shows that respect for artists and creative professionals is not a priority.

Overall a very disappointing experience. Poor communication, refusal to refund and a lack of accountability towards customers. 0 Stars.

Wonderfull energy and wonderfull soloist of Ensemble Horizons!

Thanks for the quick responsive support. We had an issue with the tickets + an unexpected rescheduling and they helped to find a solution.
Thanks a lot again. We have enjoyed the concert
Cheers

Tim Burton and Ghibli concert.

My first show to attend was Ghibli in Amsterdam 2024 and then yesterday the Tim Burton concert on Den Haag. The show never disappoints. My husband enjoyed it a lot. Tim Burton concert was hauntingly beautiful. I tried to hold my tears during the show.

Beautiful tribute to Max Richter
