Here's a health to the King

This exhilarating glee for ATB voices celebrates the reigning monarch and the royal line, alongside Frederick the Great of Prussia, whose military triumphs are lauded. The music likely matches the robust sentiments of the text, perhaps with lively rhythms and strong harmonic support for the patriotic pronouncements. Written in English, this secular piece embodies the spirit of convivial gatherings and musical expression characteristic of the glee tradition. Joseph Stephenson's setting would have been a fitting choice for gentlemen's clubs and social events, offering a spirited toast to leadership and national pride.
