The Band of The Household Cavalry - Monarch's Music [New CD]

Description: The Band of The Household Cavalry - Monarch's Music [New CD] Artist: The Band of The Household Cavalry Title: Monarch's Music Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2023 Label: CRD UPC: 708093354528 Genre: Classical Artists King Charles III's coronation on 6th May 2023 showcased the link between music and monarchy. Th is album sets this historic moment firmly within the rich tapestry of music and monarchs past. Recorded amidst the Platinum Jubilee celebrations of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, the programme transports us to points when the link between the British monarchy and music has been formalised - from coronations to royal weddings to more subtle stories of royal intervention - all the while celebrating the musical output of composers who have flourished with royal endorsement. We are meanwhile reminded that the British monarchy has played an important role as patron to the arts, including music. This album sits perfectly in the CRD catalogue and is an important release for listeners worldwide. It follows King Charles III's coronation which highlighted yet again the role of music for both contemplation and celebration. Meanwhile, on a personal note, I Was Glad happens to have been the most-loved anthem of CRD's founding director, Graham Pauncefort, and formed a critical part of our initiation into that cherished British tradition of choral singing so superbly represented here. With a 50 year history of triumphing British music and musicians behind us, we are indeed 'glad' to be sharing this life-enhancing collaboration between Th e Band of the Household Cavalry and the Choir of St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, masterfully guided by Major Paul Collis-Smith and James Vivian.
