The most iconic sound of the coronation will be the familiar song
of our national anthem. First recorded as a prayer more than three
thousand years ago and used at every coronation since 973AD, this
prayer has become part of who we are as a nation. As featured
recently in the Daily Telegraph, God Save the King is leading the
conversation, as we ask - how well do we know our National Anthem?
Should every child learn it ahead of the momentous celebration? God
Save the King uses the words of our national anthem (first and last
verses) and takes us on a tour of the UK, celebrating so many
aspects of our wonderful culture: our creativity and sportsmanship,
our NHS and frontline services, our rich agricultural and maritime
heritage, our forward-looking urban regeneration alongside our
rural and seaside traditions and of course our unrivalled ability
to queue! Introduced by Classic FM's Anne-Marie Minhall, packed
with fun historical facts and illustrated with fantastic detail and
storytelling in each spread, God Save the King will be the perfect
accompaniment to the nation's coronation celebrations and for those
wanting to know more about our most famous song.
