San Luis Obispo Master Chorale presents “The Theatrical Mendelssohn: Elijah”

San Luis Obispo Master Chorale's 2022/2023 season concludes on April 23, 2023, with a performance of Felix Mendelssohn’s great theatrical oratorio Elijah. This dramatic work tells the story of the prophet Elijah, a tale that includes the resurrection of a youth, a contest between prophets, the plotting of Queen Jezebel against Elijah, and Elijah’s final ascension into heaven. The leading role of Elijah will be sung by Chicago-area bass soloist Daniel Eifert. Additional soloists include soprano Elissa Johnston (Los Angeles), as well as known local performers Susan Azaret Davies, contralto, and George Gorrindo, tenor. The “Elijah” concert is sponsored by Marti Lindholm and Allan Smith. Soloist Daniel Eifert is sponsored by Cricket Handler and Jerry Boots. “Elijah” will be held in Harold Miossi Hall at the San Luis Obispo Performing Arts Center on the Cal Poly campus.
