Mendelssohn: Elijah

Mendelssohn: Elijah

Bryn Terfel, Renée Fleming

1997

Elijah, o colossal oratório de Felix Mendelssohn, é bíblico em escala e na origem – ele conta a história do profeta Elias, de acordo com o Antigo Testamento. Com 42 movimentos e inspirado nos oratórios de Bach e Handel, esta obra exige uma orquestra completa, incluindo organista, oito cantores solo e um grande coro. Neste elogiado álbum de 1997, o baixo-barítono galês Bryn Terfel e a soprano norte-americana Renée Fleming, grandes estrelas da ópera, interpretam o profeta e a viúva, respectivamente. A Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment realiza um acompanhamento fantástico.
