Andrew Lloyd Webber has written the anthem for King Charles III’s coronation, adapting a piece of church music that encourages singers to make a “joyful noise”
Related“I hope my anthem reflects this joyful occasion,” Webber said in a statement distributed by Buckingham Palace.
The service will include works by William Byrd , George Frideric Handel , Edward Elgar , Henry Walford Davies , William Walton , Hubert Parry and Ralph Vaughan Williams , whose music has featured in previous coronations, along with a piece from the contemporary Welsh composer Karl Jenkins. “The decision to combine old and new reflects the cultural breadth of the age in which we live,” said Andrew Nethsingha, the organist and master of choristers at Westminster Abbey.
In all, six orchestral commissions, five choral commissions and one organ commission — spanning the classical, sacred, film, television and musical theater genres — were created for the coronation.
