The original version was completed in 1831 first performed at the home of Mendelssohn's parents and then publicly on 10 January 1833 in Berlin at the Sing-Akademie conducted by the composer. It was later revised in 1843 as a programmatic overture.<br /> <br /> "The highlights of the 1843 subscription concerts included the première of the revised version of Die erste Walpurgisnacht on 2 February; among the audience was Berlioz then in the midst of his first concert tour who praised the score for its 'apparent confusion that is art perfected'."

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.
