Synopsis

Product Description
Never was there a more complete triumph', wrote The Times after the premiere of Mendelssohn's grand oratorio Elijah. Thus began the life of Elijah as one of the best-loved choral works in the repertoire, a status it still holds. An all-star cast including Willard White in the title role sings in this 2 for 1 rerelease. The London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus are conducted by the late Richard Hickox, a musician whose passionate dedication to choral music is remembered in the Richard Hickox Legacy series to which this recording belongs.
