Mendelssohn's Elijah Tickets

Mendelssohn's Elijah Concert Tickets

See one of classical music's best compositions with Mendelssohn's Elijah tickets. The life of the prophet Elijah is told in a grand manner through mediums such as oratory and music. Opus 70, MWV A 25 tells his story with an innovative approach that has been captivating listeners for over 150 years. This grand depiction was composed by Felix Mendelssohn and goes through the Old Testament of the bible and first premiered on August 26, 1946, at Birmingham Town Hall.

This piece was commissioned in the spirit of Mendelssohn's Baroque predecessors Bach and Handel, whose music he was greatly influenced by. The oratorio Elijah was modeled on the works of two Baroque masters: Bach and Handel. The style is clearly during the early Romantic Era with its use of lyricism and orchestral alongside a chorus.

Witness the beautiful sounds of the symphony with Mendelssohn's Elijah tickets. The Biblical episodes relating to Elijah are used by Mendelssohn in a rather laconic fashion, which produces intensely dramatic scenes. Several related texts from the books of 1 Kings and 2 Kings are also included throughout his compositions and these were likely well suited for Victorian sentimentality as well--both of which can be detected within some pieces that he wrote.
