Presentation
The program for this concert features Felix Mendelssohn's Oratorio ELIAS:
ELIAS: Oratorio composed by F. Mendelssohn Op. 70 MWV 25, August 26, 1846.
The libretto is based on the portrait and biblical account of the prophet ELIJAH from the First Book of Kings, with excerpts from other biblical texts such as Isaiah and the Psalms.
A singular, fiery, and zealous character, ELIJAH progresses throughout the oratorio in his own knowledge and that of God.
