MK Chorale sings Mendelssohn's Elijah

‘No work of mine ever went so admirably at its first performance, nor was received with such enthusiasm by both the musicians and the audience.’ – Felix Mendelssohn

The culmination of our 2026-27 season allows you to experience the fire, fury and tenderness of Mendelssohn’s glorious Elijah – a choral masterpiece charged with operatic drama and visceral storytelling. From desperate prayers and the spectacular confrontation on Mount Carmel to moments of profound stillness and hope, Mendelssohn brings the prophet’s extraordinary story vividly to life through moving arias, electrifying choruses and rich counterpoint.
