Mendelssohn's Elijah Paul Guinery and Roger Nichols conclude their survey of Mendelssohn's choral music with a performance of the oratorio which has become one of the two most often performed of all choral works in Britain over the past 150 years. This performance of Elijah was given in Chester Cathedral as part of the Summer Music Festival there in 2000.
