On the King's return a day of public thanksgiving was appointed, and Handel, at that time “Composer of the Musick to the Chapel Royal,“ was commissioned to write a Te Deum and an anthem (“The King Shall Rejoice“) for the occasion. The work was composed between 17 and 29 July 1743 and was first performed on 27 November 1743 in the Chapel Royal of St. James's Palace, London in the presence of George II. Soloists: Matthew White, Frédéric Antoun & Joshua Hopkins Orchestra & Chorus: San Francisco Symphony & San Francisco Symphony Chorus Conductor: Bernard Labadie Composer: Georg Friedrich Händel (1685 - 1759) Live
