A rapturous celebration of Handel!


In this BBC Prom from the Royal Albert Hall, The
Sixteen and Harry Christophers capture some
of Handel s most ebullient moments in concert
performance, from the ever-popular Arrival of the
Queen of Sheba to the ubiquitous sounds of Zadok
the Priest.


All four Coronation Anthems feature on this DVD,
as well as virtuosic excerpts from the oratorio
Semele sung by Carolyn Sampson, and the Organ
Concerto in F major performed by Alastair Ross in
its original version, which finishes with a rousing
Alleluia chorus.


Bonus features include two works not included in
the original TV broadcast Coronation Anthem My
Heart Is Inditing and Salve Regina.
