Approved

Rebecca Evans and Alice Coote appear in Elgar’s oratorio The Apostles with the Hallé under leading Elgarian Sir Mark Elder.

Leading Elgar interpreter Sir Mark Elder directs a stellar cast and large-scale choral forces, reviving a major work of the British choral tradition.

Elgar conceived The Apostles as a schoolboy, but the project came to fruition only in 1903 – after both The Dream of Gerontius and a visit to Bayreuth to hear Wagner’s The Ring and Parsifal. Elgar explores the inner feelings of Judas Iscariot with dramatic  intensity, and Christ’s anguished cry from the cross becomes a wordless lament.
