Second evening of this Mendelssohnian diptych, featuring Elias, the composer’s other monumental oratorio—equally a pillar of the choral repertoire. It comes to life in a masterful performance, propelled by outstanding instrumentalists and exceptional voices.

The reputation of the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin is well established: adorned with multiple awards for a discography among the most extensive of the past 50 years, the famous German phalanx left a lasting impression at Lanaudière during three Beethoven concerts in the summer of 2022. This year, they offer us these masterpieces in their only North American appearance, with the young singers of the Audi Jugendchorakademie and a cast of world-class soloists. A must-hear!
