Digital Booklet
|
On this album celebrating the 2012 Diamond Jubilee, The King’s Singers present works spanning the past 500 years written in honour of the great monarchs of Britain. Starting with works for, and in some cases by, Henry VIII, the programme covers the Elizabethan Triumphs of Oriana by composers such as Gibbons, Mundy and Dowland, a very Victorian selection of dedicatory works by Elgar, Parry and Parratt, choral arrangements from the opera Glorianna by Benjamin Britten and a new comical piece by Paul Drayton entitled A Rough Guide to the Royal Succession. Drayton is perhaps best known to fans of The King’s Singers as the composer of their much-loved encore work Masterpiece.
