After yesterday's bit of mischief making, today's music choices are genuinely linked to the Jubilee as well as being pieces I love.
First up, Handel's Coronation Anthem, Zadok The Priest, which has been played at British Coronations since 1727. Turn it up loud - it's the only way to listen to it!
Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No.1 was one of the pieces played after the service:
Finally, the National Anthem with the Gordon Jacob fanfare used at the coronation itself...
