- This patriotic British song, set to music by Thomas Arne, dates from 1740. It became instantly popular and has been much quoted by many other composers in their works. It has also been traditionally sung over the years at the Last Night of the Proms in London's Royal Albert Hall. This splendid arrangement is conducted by Carmen Dragon on a 60-year-old 'Capitol' LP, so I apologize for the clicks! Incidentally, the orchestra was in fact the Royal Philharmonic, with 'Over the Waves' being the title of one of several LPs that Dragon made on a visit to London in September 1959. It should also be noted that the title of the song often omits the comma and the exclamation mark, as is seen in the video!
One of the best versions I’ve ever heard
Advance Britannia! Long live the cause of freedom, God save the Queen!
Splendid arrangement. I would love to hear this version played at the last night of the proms
Rather quite grand i must say. Very much splendid for one to listen and reminisce to.
This tune is quoted very beautifully in Beethoven's battle symphony "Wellington's Victory", also known as "The Battle of Vittoria". It is available for listening here on UA-cam.
Presque un 2ème hymne britannique...! Wonderfull
Amazing, wonderful version.
Glad you like it!
Awesome cover, God Save the King!
The Empire strikes back, symphonically😊😊😊
Thank you so much 😊
Always in Remembrance
I want a 180 gram of this album. Great acoustics, great arrangements and orchestrations. Come on Chad Kessem, or Hoffman or RVG or whoever else is doing re-issues. The mono LP of this is great. And FYI, Carmen's son was Daryl Dragon, a.k.a "The Captain" of Captain and Tennille (his wife Toni Tennille.)
Catchy tune!
So good my Coca-Cola turned into tea!
Great score
I think this tune is quoted at some point in the most recent Mary Poppins musical, I think in "Jolly Holiday"
