Zadok the Priest (Coronation Anthem No. 1)

Description

“Zadok the Priest”, the first of G. F. Handel's four Coronation Anthems, has been a cherished part of British coronation services from George II in 1727 to the current sovereign, Charles III. It is a magnificently resplendent work that embodies the essence of British pride and spirit. This terrific arrangement by Douglas E. Wagner encapsulates the majesty of the original.

This arrangement is also part of a larger festival setting with string orchestra, optional brass and timpani, and choir. The string orchestra can be used as a stand-alone title.
