Krause 177.<br/><br/>"One of the most gifted and versatile prodigies Mendelssohn stood at the forefront of German music during the 1830s and 40s as conductor pianist organist and above all composer. His musical style fully developed before he was 20 drew upon a variety of influences including the complex chromatic counterpoint of Bach the formal clarity and gracefulness of Mozart and the dramatic power of Beethoven and Weber . <br/><br/>. Between 1827 and 1847 he composed six string quartets and had begun work on a seventh at the end of his life. The first two op. 13 in A minor 1827 and op. 12 in Eb 1829 show a rapprochement with the late quartets of Beethoven. To the Swedish musician Adolf Lindblad Mendelssohn explained his concern for the organic relationship of the various movements to the whole . In op. 13 the quintessential thematic material is drawn from the lied Frage op. 9 no. 1 with explicit quotations from the song in the outer and more hidden references in the inner movements of the quartet."

Hoboken 10 251 first issue.<br /> <br /> Elias an oratorio to a libretto by Julius Schubring after Kings was first performed in Birmingham on 26 August 1846. Mendelssohn made major revisions to the work following this performance introducing the new and final version in London on 16 April 1847.<br /> <br /> Mendelssohn distinguished himself in many fields and his contributions to sacred choral music are no exception. He was the most prominent advocate for the music of J.S. Bach reviving the St. Matthew Passion in 1829 and helped to reestablish the oratorio by providing two superb examples: St. Paul 1836 and Elijah 1846.<br /> <br /> "Based largely on the account in 1 Kings Elijah relates the chief events in the prophet's life: the curse of the Lord and the seven-year drought Elijah's miraculous revival of the widow's son his confrontation with the Baal worshippers and the lifting of the drought his confrontation with Ahab and Jezebel his flight to the wilderness and encounter with the Lord and his journey to Mt Horeb and ascension to heaven in a flaming chariot. As in St Paul Mendelssohn employed chorales and relied heavily upon choral numbers; noteworthy is the sheer diversity of choruses . In contrast to St Paul Mendelssohn dispensed with the narrator allowing the characters themselves to deliver the dramatic action. Elijah diverges from St Paul too in its broadly conceived musical cohesiveness; in no other work did Mendelssohn concern himself with musical structure on such a large scale." R.
