Camilla looked relaxed and happy when she walked in but the length of the walk, the weight of the train and the nerves were showing by the time she reached her seat. For someone of her age probably wanting to be at home with her feet up, she has been a credit to the Coronation.
It's strange that William Byrd, the composer of this Gloria from his Mass for 4 voices was composed at a time when Catholics in England like Byrd are persecuted and Latin music like this are forbidden and are punishable by death.
Right? And the fact that it's been sung for a heretic who's the head of a heretical jurisdiction of the Church 😂 William Byrd must be rolling in his grave.
@@pancratius602His Majesty is not a heretic, he is most likely Orthodox but is the officiator of the Anglican church. Charles did his best to incorporate elements of the Orthodox church. The holy oil was blessed in Jerusalem by an Orthodox Bishop per Charles request.
@katelucander46 Indeed, these were the Choirs of Westminster Abbey and the Chapel Royal plus girls from Methodist College, Belfast, and Truro Cathedral Choir, as well as eight professional adult singers from the Monteverdi Choir.
@georgev9170 All the coronations prior to this followed the old BCP order for Holy Communion, with the Gloria towards the end of the service after Communion has been received. An opulent setting such as Stanford's would perhaps have overtaxed the choir, especially coming so soon after Parry's "I was glad" and with Handel "Zadok the Priest" and Walton Te Deum still to come. There's a record of at least one coronation since 1902 (if not indeed that of 1902) in which the Gloria was not very well sung because the choristers were worn out by the time it got to that point - and, we should note, the coronation choirs in the 20th century were substantially larger than in 2023.
Willian Byrd foi um grande compositor do período barroco, essa Glória de uma Missa que ele compôs na época foi considerado um grande feito histórico na música que o colocou no auge dos grandes compositores como Bach, Händel, Monteverdi, Percell e outros.
Nope - this Byrd (William) was a Catholic composer and singer during Elizabeth I’s reign in the late 1500s: even though at that time in England being Catholic was a crime, and many prominent practicing Catholics were burned at the stake, exiled or imprisoned, Elizabeth kept Byrd safe - because she liked his music so much.
I have figured out why The Church of England’s Religious songs are so difficult to understand and follow--everyone is singing a different tune as well as different words.
They're not difficult to follow at all, or to understand. Not everyone in a choir has to sing the same notes and words at the same time, but they must be in perfect musical alignment and harmony. It's called polyphonic music. Let him who hath ears to hear do so.
@@adamastorBassBar For those unfamiliar with polyphony, it can be hard to follow. I've sung it all my life so I understand it, but let's spare a thought for others. : )
@Nana Butner, the different voice parts do weave in and out among each other, giving polyphony a continuous, ethereal sound. They're singing the same words, actually, but not at the same time. At some points in the music, when the composer wants to emphasize a certain phrase, all the parts will sing together for a bit, then go their own way again. Byrd was a genius at this.
@@catbird-dq7ri Why excuse a lack of education? I assume @nanabutner made their comment out of simple ignorance: every person should have a musical education and taught 'how music works. Unfortunately today, such comments and outlook are widespread because educational iconoclasts have disembowelled our education system of everything of real culture.
@@__Diagnosis Maybe he has not done a manual labouring job - indeed, why should he? - but he was the recipient of a rounded education at Gordonstoun School, which places great emphasis on a hard physical education as well as intellectual prowess.

Much the same as the Beatifiction of John Henry Newman ending with the glorious Anglican hymn "For all the Saints" The gaps between differing Christians are narrower than ever. Thanks be to God.
@brianpasnerkonk7409 Anglicans pray both the Nicene Creed and the Apostles Creed, referring to the Communion of Saints. And with regard to music, the Church of England allows musical settings in Latin or other languages besides English. It didn't always allow it, but the renaissance of English church music since the late 19th century has seen the composition of much fine music while encouraging the adoption of a wide corpus of music from the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches. Indeed, since Vatican II and subsequent reforms of the RC liturgy, with consequent musical implications, it could be argued that the Anglican church is more catholic (small c) than the Catholic church (large c) when it comes to music!
@@MS-19 referring,but not applying. In their doctrines,do they really,really pray to the saints?do they really have real saints that are canonized by higher authorities?do they honour Mary?the authority of the pope?if not,still not catholic though..lol
No autotune...no mics..just talent...
1% talent; 99% hard work, training, discipline, study, practice, a life immersed in the craft of music.
The best music is reserved for kings while rape hip-pop and pop is reserved for the rabble.
@@FlowersInHisHair Yes, amen. Full dedication to the craft. Nothing less.
Perfect! The acoustics of Westminster Abbey make it sound so beautiful resonating throughout that high vaulted room. Literally, Heavenly.
Glorious music 🙌
The coronation was a huge success. I really enjoyed this particular song. Those singers are the best in the whole world
Lovely to see the young women among the choristers.

I so agree. Greetings from New England
Wish that ceremony closed by Solemn Pontifical Mass. May England reconciled with Catholic Church. Oremus.
Amazing!!!
Why would you talk over this music? Please don't do that again...
Guess that's why they labeled it "Talk TV."
Beautiful 👏🥰❤️🥲
Man I can imagine them angels descending from heaven to hand me the letter of rejection 😂

wonderful, isn't it, how things have come round?
As if the Roman Catholic Church never persecuted anyone or peoples.

Gloria in excelsis Deo! God save the King!
Beautiful! All Glory to Jesus!
A meaty, bass-y performance, more of that pls.
Outstanding ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Stunning!
Sublime
Why can’t they resist to comment?!
it'd be great if they got the commentary correct, too- choir is made up of a lot more than just the chapel royal choristers
@katelucander46 Indeed, these were the Choirs of Westminster Abbey and the Chapel Royal plus girls from Methodist College, Belfast, and Truro Cathedral Choir, as well as eight professional adult singers from the Monteverdi Choir.
Does anyone know what time Andrea Bocelli is going to sing?
He's singing at the concert on Sunday night, not at coronation
Why didn't they perform the impressive Stanford version, as they have done at the three previous coronations?

Why is this woman commenting during this execution?
there's catholic hymn, there's orthodox chant ... may Christian Unification will come true...
Why? I appreciate all different flavours of ice cream. Who want a bland Christianity.
