Elijah

In a similar production to our performance of Haydns great oratorio The Creation two seasons ago, we present to you Part I of Felix Mendelssohns epic tale of the Old Testament prophet Elijah, accompanied by piano duet and with most of the solo roles taken from within the choir.

All except the title role, for which were immensely grateful to baritone Richard Latham in agreeing to come and perform with us.

Come and revel in some glorious choruses, vocal chamber ensembles, lively narrative and rolling arias.

This music is deeply elegant and attractive to the ear.

A rare chance to hear the detail of a chamber performance with smaller forces and the clarity of piano duet accompaniment.
