Dr. Joshua Harper

Elijah

April 2, 2023 @ 3:00 pm

Chamber Orchestra with Quartz Ensemble

  • Mendelssohn: Elijah

Joshua Harper, Conductor

In their third appearance with Arizona Philharmonic, Dr. Joshua Harper’s elite chorus Quartz Ensemble returns to our stage to present Felix Mendelssohn’s masterpiece, Elijah. Building upon the success of last season’s Brahms’ Requiem, Arizona Philharmonic presents another Arizona premiere of a Joachim Linckelmann chamber orchestra arrangement. Once again, the stunning clarity of a 12-voice professional choir shines with the lighter orchestration that Linckelmann crafts. You will hear Elijah in a whole new intimacy.

As is frequently the custom in modern performances of Elijah, Dr. Harper has removed a number of movements not critical to the story line in order to fit the work into a standard concert-length program. The numbers attached to the movements performed today represent the original numbers within the full oratorio.
