Land_Surfer Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Wonder how many brass arrangers will be trying to arrange this. A very unique Kyrie Ellison. Flawless performance by Bryn Terfel. I bet it was the best music for, and performed at the coronation, at least during the 15 mins I watched it while up feeding the dog. https://www.itv.com/news/wales/2023-05-06/the-welsh-music-at-the-heart-of-the-kings-coronation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_orangecounty Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 The coronation included the glorious "Zadok the Priest", and I couldn't be happier. Wasn't sure they'd keep it. The British didn't invent pageantry but, they sure as heck perfected it!! God Save the King. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwillis35 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Loved the ceremony. Wonderful music. The chorus, orchestra, ceremonial trumpets, the organ and the bands...it was all wonderful. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen brass bands on flatbed trucks in parades. ‘merica. We take an idea and perfect it. 😎 Edited May 7, 2023 by IllianaLancerContra 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps8294 Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 The music was great! I'll take a massive old cathedral with herald horns, an orchestra, and a huge pipe organ over a good ol' boy megachurch with a praise band, anyday! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who doesn't love a set of timpani on a horse using marching bass drum mallets? Edited May 7, 2023 by keystone3ply cx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keystone3ply Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 This went viral: folks thought this guy, composer Sir Carl Jenkins, was a spectator in disguise at the Coronation this weekend. 😂 https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/everyone-trying-figure-guy-disguise-012118628.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
