Music for the Coronation of Charles III: The Coronation Ceremony at Westminster Abbey is an unprecedented celebration of contemporary and traditional British music including 12 brand new works commissioned by His Majesty the King. Andrew Lloyd Webber composed the coronation anthem "Make a Joyful Noise" especially for the occasion, and for the first time at a coronation, the music will be sung in Welsh: Bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel interprets the Coronation Kyrie in Welsh.

In addition to bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel, soloists at the coronation ceremony include soprano Pretty Yende and baritone Roderick Williams. There will be eight choirs, six conductors, two organists, and the state trumpeters of the Household Cavalry and the fanfare trumpeters of the Royal Air Force.
