Simply brilliant. How can anyone not be taken away by this simply stunning performance? The transitional passages from the organ are brilliant, and so well played too!!

Fabulous ! Nuff said. If the hair on the back of your neck doesnt stand to attention at this , then I suggest you're dead , or you have sold your soul !

Oh I wish I was Anglican. :)

I was a choirboy in the cantoris side of the coronation choir in 1953. I always liked singing this anthem. The other anthem that is well known is Zadok the priest.

I wanna do this song in my choir!!!

could anyone tell me what meter this is in?

Such an epic anthem, VERY nearly brought me to tears!

And you can put Elgar aside, Parry was far more patriotic, and you can feel it in his music!

St Paul's never do anything by halves, in any respect, and that God they dont !!

Definitely needs the trumpets throughout!
