Today’s pick

Composer of the Week:

Handel and the Crown

Radio 3, noon

It’s hard to think of a more

regal creative figure than

Handel, right, composer

of Zadok the Priest, whose

soaring sound has been

performed at every

coronation since 1727. As part

of its programming marking

the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee,

this week, Donald Macleod

has been exploring Handel’s

relationship with the

monarchy, and how he

helped to forge a new sense

of British culture and identity.

Today’s programme is called

New Broom. The accession of

a new king leads to a key

turning point in Handel’s

relationship with his adopted

country. Ben Dowell
