ABBA Hits, performed by the Mystery Quartet, will take place at The National Centre for Early Music in York on 19 December 2026. The concert will feature original instrumental arrangements of ABBA's most famous songs, exploring the emotional depth and musical complexity of their work.
From the irresistible energy of Dancing Queen and Mamma Mia to the heartfelt emotion of The Winner Takes It All , the unforgettable music of ABBA comes to life in a vibrant new concert programme performed by Mystery Quartet . Presented at the National Centre for Early Music in York , a contemporary venue renowned for its excellent acoustics and intimate atmosphere, the concert invites audiences to rediscover some of the most celebrated songs in pop history through original instrumental arrangements. ABBA’s music is instantly recognisable: radiant melodies, sophisticated harmonies and infectious rhythms, often accompanied by an unexpected undercurrent of tenderness and melancholy. These contrasting qualities are explored through fresh arrangements, revealing new colours and nuances within songs that have united generations of listeners. The programme brings together exhilarating dance-floor anthems, lyrical ballads and enduring favourites, including Dancing Queen , Mamma Mia , Waterloo , The Winner Takes It All , Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! , Money, Money, Money and more. More than half a century after ABBA’s international breakthrough with Waterloo , their songs remain as immediate, joyful and emotionally resonant as ever. This concert celebrates that extraordinary musical legacy in an intimate live setting, inviting audiences to experience familiar melodies from a fresh perspective. The concert is organised by RED EVENTS & Distribution Ltd ., an international cultural events produc
