Mit einer atemberaubenden Auswahl an Chormusik, die wirklich einem König würdig ist, leitet Andrew Gant den Chor der Chapel Royal & The Musicians Extra-Ordinary, um die Musik nachzubilden, die die Krönung von Jakob II. und Königin Maria im Jahr 1685 begleitete.

Aufgenommen in der Chapel Royal im St. James’s Palace ist diese Platte eine perfekte Darstellung einer der berühmtesten und historischsten Musikinstitutionen des Landes. (challengerecords. com)
