- To celebrate Queen Victoria’s 200th birthday, historian Dr Lucy Worsley explores the character and legacy of the famous monarch in a way that has never been attempted before - through music. Lucy reveals how Victoria used music to transform the monarchy from a political power into a benevolent cultural force that brought the country together during a time of great upheaval and change. Lucy also examines the central role music played in Victoria’s own life - as a queen, a private person and in her marriage to Prince Albert.
Victoria and Albert also took an active role in reshaping the musical culture of Britain by establishing institutions like the Royal College of Music and the Royal Albert Hall. Together they laid the groundwork for a musical renaissance in Britain which saw a new generation of great British composers reshape the sound of Britain in the 20th century. To bring the story of Britain’s great musical revolution to life there are performances from Sir Willard White, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Black Dyke Brass Band and many more.
I believe that Lucy Worsley is England’s top historian and presenter; a National Treasure. I absolutely adore her.
She is one of my favorite historians also!
And mine as well❤ I love her dramatic story telling techniques!
Lucy Worsley is by far one of my favorite historians of all time. I have been listening and watching her for years. She makes history so fun and inspiring.I have learned a lot of excellent history lessons. She is a very beautiful woman in many ways. I’m a long time history buff. I have a book on Queen Victoria she is one of my favorite Queens. ❤ What great music. Thank you for this documentary.
Yes. Lucy Worsley is aorable. She's my all time favourite history presenter. If she had chosen acting she'd be a great actress. I guess a great comedian.
A wonderful documentary and brilliant telling of an important but previously overlooked aspect of Queen Victoria. Excellent work.
Thank you so much, so many wonderful things all in one. Music, Victoria's world and most importantly the extraordinary presenter making it all make perfect sense. Thank you Ms. Worsley it was lovely. :)
Fascinating!🇦🇺💜
Ok, I'll be the one to say it - whoever "styled" Lucy's hair should be permanently confined to the most wretched part of the Tower. It would have been bad enough to do this to anyone, but the fact that Lucy is the victim of this travesty is untenable!
I second that! I was horrified and transfixed by that scraggly bit hanging down.
Giggle. How many of you have Bugs Bunny' voice running through your head in Barber of Seville?
