Product Description

CD Description

On a new disc to celebrate the 2012 Diamond Jubilee, The King's Singers present a selection of works from 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 Parrat; choral arrangements from the opera 'Glorianna' by Benjamin Britten; and a new piece by Paul Drayton that comically pens '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.) Recent reviews for the King's Singers previous disc 'High Flight' (SIGCD262) Each track is an ethereal epic that is deeply affecting and undeniably beautiful."" Choral Music Guide, January 2012

5.0 out of 5 stars Kings Singers 29 Oct 2012

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I went to their concert in Manchester earlier this year to hear the live version of this cd, and they were terrific, so I had to get their cd of the concert, and I was not disappointed at all. The cd is excellent and a fraction of the cost that the theater was charging for it.

One of the most consistently excellent vocal ensembles in the business. I have always loved the music from this period and their sense of style is on the mark. Excellent performance.
