The Ebor Singers
Directed by Paul Gameson
Organ: Robert Poyser; Trumpet: Oliver Brady
This recording, made in York Minster, takes its form from the order of the Coronation Service, and includes some music and spoken prayers and readings from that service of June 2 1953, as well as other pieces inspired by or associated with the ceremony.
Some of this music had been composed specifically for that ceremony, including Vaughan Williams' O taste and see and All people that on earth do dwell , and Gordon Jacobs' arrangement of the National Anthem (here preceded by a fanfare specially composed for this recording by Richard Shephard, headmaster of York Minster School) while other pieces had been performed at previous ceremonies, such as Handel's Zadok the Priest (1727, George II) and Parry's I was glad (1902, Edward VII).
Also included is Stanford's Te Deum (for Edward VII) and Elgar's Land of Hope and Glory (a version taken from the final movement of his Coronation Ode (1902)).
