Drought, fire, flood and whirlwind; fear, courage and faith. The dramatic story of the prophet Elijah is brought to life in Mendelssohn’s well-loved oratorio. A lone voice against oppressive rulers, Elijah raises the dead, calls down fire from heaven, escapes persecution and despair, and is taken up to heaven in a whirlwind.

 

Scottish baritone Ivor Klayman sings the title role and he is joined by other talented soloists, a bespoke choir, and Peebles Orchestra.
