What does English history sound like? Join us for a musical march through the old royal quarter…

We’ll find Handel, whose work has soundtracked every coronation since that of George II; Thomas Tallis who negotiated the treacherous waters of royal regime change over three reigns; and we’ll find both Mozart AND Louis Armstrong making music at the same spot – not many places can boast that. Henry Purcell, that most London of all composers, will be at our shoulder every step of the way. Royal parks, processional routes and palaces will provide our backdrop and the tour ends at Westminster Abbey.
