Our Take

Hailed as the musical equivalent of a royal fanfare, CHRISTOPHERS / THE SIXTEEN's "Coronation - Music For Royal Occasions" is a majestic celebration of all things regal. From the grandeur of Handel's Zadok the Priest to the delicate beauty of Purcell's Come, Ye Sons of Art, this album is a veritable feast for the ears fit for a king, or even a queen.

Each track on "Coronation" is expertly performed with a level of precision and grace that would make even the most stoic of monarchs shed a tear of joy. CHRISTOPHERS and THE SIXTEEN's mastery of the Baroque repertoire shines through in every note, creating a truly immersive listening experience that transports you right into the heart of a royal court.

But don't be fooled by the album's stately exterior – there's a playful sense of mischief lurking beneath the surface. The unexpected twists and turns in Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks keep listeners on their toes, while the quirky charm of Purcell's King Arthur provides a delightful contrast to the more formal compositions.

In short, "Coronation" is a delightful romp through the world of royal music, showcasing CHRISTOPHERS / THE SIXTEEN's unrivalled talent and knack for bringing a touch of fun to even the most regal of occasions. Long live the kings (and queens) of Baroque!
