Elgar's The Apostles
Sir Mark Elder conducts The Hall茅 at Manchester's Bridgewater Hall in a performance of Elgar's oratorio The Apostles.
Sir Mark Elder conducts The Hall茅 at Manchester's Bridgewater Hall in a performance of Elgar's oratorio 'The Apostles', presented as part of a venture to perform all three of Elgar's great oratorios in Manchester over a two-week period. The Apostles is the middle work, conceived as the opening part of a great trilogy of large scale choral works that tell of Jesus's Apostles and their reflections and meditations on his life and work. The libretto is Elgar's own, derived from the composer's own studies of scripture. Tonight's concert is presented by Tom McKinney.
