Elgar's intensely operatic oratorio Gerontius, written with conviction and deep passion, traces the journey of the soul after death.

Come discover why this spiritual drama is deemed one of the greatest masterpieces written in the half century betweenn the Verdi Requiem and Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms.

Watch and listen to the Boston Symphony's recent January 26, 2008 podcast of Gerontius with Conductor Colin Davis and The Tanglewood Festival Chorus in Boston Symphony Hall. (Click on "Video".)
