THREE ELIZABETHS (THE): A Musical Celebration of Britain through the Centuries

The support and patronage of the Royal Family has always enabled the music of the British Isles to flourish, today as much as in the Golden Age of Queen Elizabeth I. This glorious collection surveys music from the life and times of the Three Elizabeths, including many specially commissioned works as well as music from the Coronations. The title of the collection is taken from Eric Coates’s of the same name.
