Ever since Handel's Messiah first captivated audiences in 1743, the oratorio form has occupied a pre-eminent position in the concert halls of England. Following its first performance some 100 years later Elijah has established itself alongside Handel's masterpiece in the public's affection and its popularity continued until the present day. This performance, part of the Barbican's series of English oratorios, features a quartet of superb soloists alongside the orchestra's own professional choir, Britten Sinfonia Voices, conducted by the dynamic Andreas Delfs.
