Mendelssohn: Elias, Op. 70

Hamburger Camerata; Hamburger Kantorei St. Nikolai; Jänicke, Yvi; Connaire, Michael; Hoffmann-Borggrefe, Matthias; Hennersdorf, Bent; Speer, Yorck Felix; Hamburger St. Nikolai Boys Choir; Müller, Katherina

Following the highly acclaimed live recording of Frank Martin's Requiem and Arthur Honegger's cantata La Danse de Morts, this release presents a sterling performance from the Choir of St. Nikolai in Hamburg, conducted by their longstanding director, Matthias Hoffmann-Borggrefe. This album presents a well-considered interpretation that deals intensively with musical details without losing sight of the work's overall rigor.
