Few years back I visited Windsor Castle and in the chapel, as I walked in, this was in full swing, absolutely mesmerising and very powerful, a wall of music. Never will I forget that moment.

@valeriesmith5780 2 года назад

I remember hearing it on a headset while taking a tour of Westminster Abbey, and just imagined what the scene might have been like back in June 1953 during the Coronation.

@scalls95 12 лет назад

Yes, Haendel was indeed born a German, but by the time he wrote this he was a fully naturalised British citizen; he realised that Britain was so amazing that he decided to become part of this great land himself - even anglicising his name to Handel! From an Australian who is proud of his mother country.

@FannyLerouxTime Год назад

The royal family are of German descent.

@FannyLerouxTime Год назад

We are also NOT your mother country, you're a part of the commonwealth (although I'm not sure how you get the wealth bit tbh). Australia has an amazing history, yes the Brits invaded (like they did everywhere tbh, as if it was a trend), but the UK is not the motherland of Australia.

Generally, the 'hook' of the composition is the dramatic "Zadok the priest..." Choral entry point...but couldn't we languish in the prelude of sweet rhythmic strings for hours and hours?...pure musical magic 💥🌟✨

Most definitely one of the greatest pieces of Classical music and the greatest coronation anthem!!

@martinharrison6444 11 лет назад

my darling (American) wife found this for me in 2012. This has been the greatest ever year to be British. THE GREATEST EVER! . . . and there's something about this performance of Zadok the Priest - in Buckingham Palace's back garden - that sums it all up for me

@rodrigomanzano953 16 лет назад

Zadok the Priest (HWV 258) is a coronation anthem composed by George Frideric Handel (1685--1759) using texts from the King James Bible. It is one of the four Coronation Anthems that Handel composed for the coronation of George II of Great Britain in 1727.[1] and has been sung at every subsequent British coronation service. It is traditionally performed during the sovereign's anointing.

@gmonkey808 10 лет назад

best version on youtube. God bless you Handel. You will live forever.

@kirstenschafer1719 3 года назад

Yes you are right! This version of Zadok the priest is spirited, grandiose, with a powerful choir...really amazing 🙏

@Evan490BC 3 года назад

@@kirstenschafer1719 It's not that good... Too fast a tempo. That's understandable though, it's a live performance, the idea is more to be "theatric" than accurate.

I sang this back in the late 70’s when I was in the Sacred Heart Boy Choir, St. Paul, MN. Our choir director chose pieces that were difficult to sing, but we were up to the task. It’s one of my favorites of the music we sang.

@danawinsor1380 6 лет назад

What a wonderful piece. The introduction with its constant repetitive rhythm puts the listener in suspense,; it seems something wonderful is about to happen. Then, the vocal entrance is an explosion of glory (forgive me if I give in to feelings of exaltation). (Yes, like "The Crow Guy," I am a total Anglophile.)

@multirichard007 11 лет назад

I have sung this with 150 other singers and almost a full orchestra, for the Queen's Coronation celebration on the Isle of Man. Very stirring! We are just ordinary people, not trained singers. But its a great sound. And yes, it does sum up all that's great about Britain, and people in general. There should be more singing like this. Join a choral group - you won't regret it!

No, it was written for the coronation of HM King George II, invoking Solomon for historical legitimacy. It was one of the last acts of HM King George I, to naturalise as a British citizen Handel and commission this work for the coronation of his son.
