Singer

An impressive title role and magnificent choirs – from the mighty “Help, Lord!” to the famous double quartet “For he has commanded his angels” to the final chorus “Then your light will shine”: With his “Elijah,” Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy composed what is arguably the most important Romantic oratorio, one that still casts its timeless spell over us today.

Mendelssohn's Elijah

Monastery Church of the Assumption of Mary, Aldersbach

Blaibach Concert Hall

Johann Sebastian Bach created music of timeless power and depth with his Christmas Oratorio. With its arias and choruses that have become ingrained in our cultural memory, the work is an essential part of the musical tradition during Advent. Rejoice, be glad!
