5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant performance, 27 Aug 2009
By Mr. O. J. Dicker "pianoolli" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a very difficult work...I have sung it myself..I WISH I had this cd all those years ago however! Willard White IS Elijah himself, wonderful powerful, dramtatic and passionate singing. The tenors voice is also stunning as are equally the soprano/alto solos. This recording is VERY clear for 1989. Every single track has been labeled with time duration on the back of the cd. The booklet notes and pictures of the soloists and the rehearsals add to the magic, as does the photo of mendelssohns letter to his friend, disscussing the work. The choir are very tight and how they get in sync with all the orchestra through the speed changes is beyond me and prob down to the amazing skills of the conductor/ director. I have really enjoyed listening to this heavy piece of work with such great melodies, following it along with the score (a must really to hear those details) . I couldn't find another better cd of this work so got this one..and glad of it too...
