        The Elijah oratorio is not done as frequently as Messiah. In the past I’ve had to wait years to hear it performed live. When I last heard it the the soloist was the major draw. But under the demanding and gifted work of Dr. Brady Allred the Salt Lake Choral Artists have been able to devote the time and preparation this piece deserves. As a member of his choir I can attest it has been rigorous work, but at the same time pleasure. What glorious music this is, and telling such an incredible story. For the time being my favorite moment in the oratorio is when the men sing "Go return upon thy way" –music so beautifully crafted by Mendelssohn and coupled with the vocal skill Allred magically pulls from the men’s section it is like you are transported to the prophet's side and hearing the commission with Elijah himself.
