]]> Performing Mendelssohn’s Elijah, Sir Antonio Pappano and the London Symphony Orchestra received roof-raising applause. It’s 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.

Sir Antonio Pappano conducts this dramatic oratorio, with four star soloists bringing the tale of the Prophet Elijah to life. We follow the fortunes of the steadfast, open-hearted Elijah, and encounter ministering angels and the vengeful queen Jezebel.

The London Symphony Chorus, The Guildhall Singers and four electrifying soloists – Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha, Sarah Connolly, Allan Clayton and Gerald Finley give voice to the oratorio in English, as in its first premiere. Gerald Finley breathes life into the role of Elijah, and the London Symphony Orchestra ramps up the drama without losing sight of the stillness at the heart of the storm. This release also celebrates 25 years of our music label, LSO Live.
