Acorn Media David Starkeys Music And Monarchy

Presented by renowned historian David Starkey, this epic new BBC series reveals how British Kings and Queens shaped the story of the nations music : as patrons and tastemakers, and even as composers and performers. It uncovers the role of the crown in the careers of our greatest composers - from Purcell and Handel to Parry and Elgar and features exclusive performances of the nations favourite music, in the historic locations where the monarchy first enjoyed it - from Westminster Abbey and Kings College Cambridge to Buckingham Palace. This is the music of ceremony, pageantry, and power music composed for coronations and jubilees, thanksgiving and political expediency.
