Founded in 1836, the Huddersfield Choral Society has developed an international reputation as one of the UK's leading choral societies. Their new recording features works that are central to the choirs musical heritage, incuding works by Handel, Elgar, Vaughan Williams, Holst and many more.

"With trumpets and drums bursting in on the scene in tandem with the massed ranks of the Huddersfield Choral Society after Thomas Trotter's splendiferous introduction to Zadok the Priest, there will be few red-blooded Englishmen whose neck-hair will fail to rise at the opening of this fun-filled disc. Here is a large, full-bodied choir, singing in full voice and clearly having an absolute ball…Seek it out for the grandeur and gloriously robust sound of some great British coronation anthems sung with fervour and virile muscularity" MusicWeb
