Since he could hardly have expected ever to see a more majestic occasion, the composer took full advantage of it to put on a musical firework display of unprecedented splendour. The RIAS Kammerchor and the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin give thrilling accounts of these flamboyant works - some of which are still used today at each new coronation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Handel: An Occasional Oratorio, HWV 62: Overture \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Handel: An Occasional Oratorio, HWV 62: Allegro \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Handel: An Occasional Oratorio, HWV 62: Adadio \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Handel: An Occasional Oratorio, HWV 62: Marche \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Handel: The Lord is a sun and a shield: No.1, Chorus \"The Lord is a sun and a shield\" \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Handel: The Lord is a sun and a shield: No.2, Verse \"Now I know that the Lord saveth his anointed\" \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Handel: The Lord is a sun and a shield: No.3, Chorus \"For the king trusteth in the Lord\" \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Handel: The Lord is a sun and a shield: No.4, Verse \"His salvation is nigh them that fear him\" \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Handel: The Lord is a sun and a shield: No.5, Chorus \"Blessed be the Lord God of Israel\" \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Handel: Chaconne in G Major \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Handel: Coronation Anthems, Zadok the Priest, HWV 258 \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Handel: Coronation Anthems, Let thy hand be strengthened, HWV 259: No.1, Let thy hand \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Handel: Coronation Anthems,Let thy hand be strengthened, HWV 259: No.2, Let justice and judgment \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Handel: Coronation Anthems, Let thy hand be strengthened, HWV 259: No.3, Alleluia \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Handel: Coronation Anthems,The King shall rejoice, HWV 260: No.1, The King shall rejoice \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Handel: Coronation Anthems,The King shall rejoice, HWV 260: No.2, Exceeding glad shall he be \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Handel: Coronation Anthems,The King shall rejoice, HWV 260: No.3, Glory and great worship \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Handel: Coronation Anthems,The King shall rejoice, HWV 260: No.4, Alleluia \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Handel: Coronation Anthems, My heart is inditing, HWV 261: No.1, My heart is inditing \u003cbr\u003e1.20 Handel: Coronation Anthems, My heart is inditing, HWV 261: No.2, King’s daughters \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Handel: Coronation Anthems, My heart is inditing, HWV 261: No.3, Upon thy right hand \u003cbr\u003e1.22 Handel: Coronation Anthems, My heart is inditing, HWV 261: No.4, Kings shall be thy nursing fathers\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Rias-Kammerchor Berlin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39959932272711,"sku":"43326853","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4185389-2957579.jpg?v=1711790653","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/rias-kammerchor-berlin-handel-coronation-anthems","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
