Event
Mendelssohn's Elijah
Experience Felix Mendelssohns oratorio in a whole new way as the choir of Second Presbyterian Church joins forces with the UA Little Rock Community Chorus for a dramatic concert in the sanctuary of First Presbyterian Church in downtown Little Rock. This performance showcases both the power of First Presbyterians world-class organ and the exceptional musical technique of organist Adam Savacool, accompanied by a chamber orchestra. Soloists and small vocal ensembles interact with the large combined choir to bring the prophets, royalty, and the people of Israel from this popular Old Testament story to life.
Bass-baritone Robert Holden is featured as Elijah, who is confronted in this tale by mezzo-soprano Kelley Ponder as Queen Jezebel. Section leaders from the Second Presbyterian Church choir perform as King Ahab, the faithful Obadiah, and the angels of the Lord, while the choir gives voice both to the prophets of Baal and the people of Israel.
