大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra: Elgar Choral Works

大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra Conductor Laureate Sir Andrew Davis conducts Elgar鈥檚 masterpiece The Dream of Gerontius and The Apostles, less frequently performed but one of the composer鈥檚 greatest choral achievements. Majestic, terrifying and deeply moving The Dream of Gerontius follows the journey of a man鈥檚 soul through life, death and the afterlife and is considered the composer鈥檚 finest choral work. Containing some of Elgar鈥檚 most inspired writing, The Apostles tells the story of the disciples of Jesus, focussing on Mary Magdalene and Judas Iscariot with powerful intensity and great sensitivity.
