Additional Information

Two imposing oratorios by Mendelssohn will come to life at the Festival de Lanaudière on July 18 and 19. The works Paulus (St. Paul) and Elias (Elijah), respectively, will be performed by the outstanding instrumentalists of the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin (AKAMUS), a multi-award-winning orchestra with one of the most extensive discographies of the last half-century, along with the superb voices of world-class soloists and young singers from the Audi Jugendchorakademie.
