Programme The concert's programme comprised music from Elizabeth II's
wedding and
coronation, as well as royal works and works from the Anglican repertory. It also included a number of Australian and world premieres. Voltz and Kouznetsov described it as a "musical cross-section". The premiere of Brenton Broadstock's
Remember Them, which sets
John McCrae's '
In Flanders Fields' and
Laurence Binyon's '
For the Fallen' for unaccompanied choir, was notably dedicated to
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and also all the victims of war, terror, poverty and disease throughout Elizabeth II's reign. Broadstock wrote in the score: "This piece is intended to remember and honour those fallen in battle, but it could also be used to remember those who have fallen victim to the
COVID-19 pandemic". •

Dei gratia regina (world premiere) Originally, the programme advertised the 'Fanfare for the Wedding of Princess Elizabeth' from
Two Royal Wedding Fanfares by
Arnold Bax, but the work was withdrawn on the day of the concert following
copyright concerns. It was replaced instead with the Australian National Anthem, '
Advance Australia Fair'. The concert ran for about 120 minutes and included a short interval. ==References==
