Reviews – The Apostles and The Kingdom
The concerts would not have been possible without the hard work by Sir Mark and the orchestra, the star cast, the choruses and everyone behind the scenes.
Many thanks to PZ Cussons for their support.
5/5 - The Kingdom
Barry Creasy, Music OMH“The Hallé choir completely nailed their material at every turn, bringing a precision of text delivery, and some impressive summoning of mood and emotion”
5/5 The Apostles
Robert Beale, The Artsdesk“The chorus were indefatigable, full-throated in the sturdy march that greets the calling of the disciples, pious in their singing of temple praises, triumphant in the great apotheosis that ends of piece.”
4/5 The Kingdom
Rohan Shotton, Bachtrack“...the onstage forces mustered up all the requisite energy and spirit needed for a big season finale, and Sir Mark Elder rounded off his Elgar oratorio-thon in style with a compelling account of The Kingdom.”
