Concordia University Choir Fall Concert October 11, 2009

The Concordia Choir will be joined by choirs from Lincoln High School, Milan High School, and Lutheran High Westland to present excerpts from important oratorios, including Carissimi’s Jepthe, Handel’s Israel in Egypt, Haydn’s The Creation, and Mendelssohn’s Elijah. These works are important placeholders in the history of oratorio, and each demonstrates the dramatic potential when Old Testament stories are told through music by leading composers.
