Hadleigh Choral Society - Mendelssohn's Elijah
Mendelssohn’s much-loved masterpiece Elijah, one of the greatest oratorios in choral repertoire, will be performed by Hadleigh Choral Society. The choruses, arias and recitatives dramatically tell the story of Elijah, the Old Testament prophet, through various Biblical episodes which feature terrible drought and famine, miraculous rain, mortal resurrection, a contest between gods, a fiery chariot and horses, and ultimately ascension to heaven.
Joining the choir will be professional soloists Eli
The concert starts at 7pm. Tickets are £15 (under 25s free) and are available from the Hadleigh Choral Society www.hadleighchoralsociety.org.uk, The Idler bookshop in Hadleigh (37 High Street), choir
