description Christus (Mendelssohn) Overview
Christus is an unfinished sacred oratorio by Felix Mendelssohn. The composer intended it to portray episodes from the life of Jesus Christ, including material associated with the Nativity and the Passion, but he died in 1847 before completing the work. What survives consists of separate musical sections rather than a finished oratorio, making it useful for studying Mendelssohn's late religious music and compositional plans.
