Synopsis
TV/radio host and historian Starkey delves into the link between some music hits and British royalty in "David Starkey's Music and Monarchy." Through the series, he demonstrates how a lot of the nation's history is preserved within beloved songs. From kings who composed -- such as Henry V -- and the threat to musicians by the religious conflict of the 17th century, to the coronation ceremony of Elizabeth II, episodes give glimpses into 500 years of patriotism, religion and power, through composition and harmony.
