A lovely choir and orchestra and a fine performance! Nothing wrong with the tempo at all. Watch and listen to the whole performance, it is well worthwhile. All the soloists are good especially , "Elijah." Also, the recorded sound quality is of a high standard.

My favorite version on YouTube! And how appropriate in this week of earthquakes and tempests.
