LSO Live marks the beginning of it's 25th anniversary year with the release of Mendelssohn's Elijah, recorded live in concert with Sir Antonio Pappano earlier this year. From it's first performance, Elijah received roof-raising applause. It is one of the three greatest oratorios in musical history, bringing the sacred to life in glorious song. The life of the Biblical prophet is told in a series of dramatic episodes. We follow the fortunes of the steadfast, open-hearted Elijah, and encounter ministering angels and the vengeful queen Jezebel. The London Symphony Chorus and four electrifying soloists give voice to the oratorio in English, as in it's first premiere. Gerald Finley breathes life into the role of Elijah, and the Orchestra ramps up the drama without losing sight of the stillness at the heart of the storm.
