Event Details
United Voices Choir presents a joyful and uplifting spring concert featuring George Frideric Handel’s magnificent Coronation Anthems – including the famous Zadok the Priest – and the thrilling Dixit Dominus.
Under the direction of Dr. Greg Caisley, the 65-voice choir will be joined by professional soloists and orchestra.
Commissioned for the coronation of King George II and Queen Caroline of Great Britain in 1727, the Coronation Anthems are joyous, extroverted works full of bold contrasts, showing off Handel’s flair for writing glorious music for big occasions.
Dixit Dominus (The Lord Said) is a brilliant tour-de-force composed by Handel in 1707 when he was just 22 years old. Full of drama, virtuosity and driving energy, the work is an exhilarating experience for performers and audiences alike.
