The Bach Choir and Simon Keenlyside present Mendelssohn's Elijah.
The Choir performs with one of Britain's most sought after and charismatic singers for this performance of Mendelssohn's English language oratorio, depicting scenes from the life of the biblical prophet.
Combining elements from the works of Bach and Handel with nineteenth-century Romanticism and high drama, Elijah has an enduring appeal to singers and audiences alike.
