The Royal School of Church Music's Annual Lecture
About this event
Parry's I was glad: the reinvention, ritual and pageantry of the modern coronation.
Professor Jeremy Dibble - Live-streamed from Holy Sepulchre Church, Holborn Viaduct (The National Musicians' Church).
Composed for the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902, and sung at all following coronations, this majestic, much-loved anthem is being included this year in countless services and concerts as we celebrate the Platinum Jubilee of the RSCM’s Royal Patron, Her Majesty the Queen.
In this fascinating lecture, as well as looking at the original composition, Jeremy will lead us through the changes and developments following its initial use in 1922 and also of each and every coronation since.
Over the past twenty years Jeremy has edited many RSCM publications, including the RSCM edition of Parry I was glad, Songs of Farewell and Hear my words, ye people.Click here to view the event on the RSCM website.
