- King Charles is presented with the Jewelled Sword of Offering and his spurs as the Byzantine Chant Ensemble sings a Greek Orthodox offering.
The Liturgical piece of music was requested specifically by King Charles III as a tribute to his late father Prince Philip of Greece.
This chanting suddenly brought serious holiness in the Church, something felt different
I agree
…even in his expression, the magnitude of such a sacred calling seemed to set in.
Yes, Thank you for putting in words what many of us felt !
Holy Orthodoxy
Yes. English church music is very good, but it rarely reaches the depths of despair and heights of elation that Orthodox music inspires. English music tends to have a lighter touch, suited to a people whose emotions are a little more restrained.
That Greek Byzantine chant is so breathtakingly beautiful.
You can find lots more like it, choir is Alexander Lingas/ Capella Romana
@@lavender5765 how when it's a Christian chant?
@@lavender5765 -You know King Charles father was born in Greece and was their prince.
@@lavender5765 how Syria and Iraq have greek chants?
@@Tibbs736 thank you, ive been looking for there names all over the place.
Wow, the chant is so powerful. Takes the ceremony to a sacred ancient time. It's a different level.
are you english you shouldn't be happy about this
@Sotra Fall
I am happy about and respect everything that is Christian regardless if it's Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox or any other type of Christianity. 🙏💗
@@sotrafall5611 Why so much anger? King Charles probably knows better.
@@sotrafall5611 not happy with something sounding so divine? You should be proud
It is actually from the ancient times when Christianity ✝️ Roman Empire started. The eastern Roman Empire was Greek speaking and all the eastern Roman emperors have the same psalms.
All the Orthodox only here to listen to the chant.
I am Orthodox and am most proud that it was chanted at this moment, but this is not the only reason that I am here.
ΥΣS.
As a Persian, I find the Greek Orthodox chanting majestic.
Worthy rivals of ancient times and good friends of modern times
🇬🇷💙🇮🇷
Because like us Greeks, you Persians have enough civilization to stand next to us as our legitimate rivals. Your understanding of the world is no less than ours and you can identify real beauty.
Greetings to Persia my friend
Beautifully said….🙏🏻💝

That byzantine chant brings the coronation to a whole new level. Now it's not just a ceremony. It's a spiritual experience.
As a Greek myself, I can tell you this chant was more than majestic.
The chant took me to heaven for a moment I swear
Modern evangelicals: the kind of music doesn't matter.
Byznatine Greeks: Hold my wine
Imagine this to the emperor’s coronation in the Hagia Sophia
but better
GOD WILLING BROTHER.
its coming
From your mouth, and to God's ear !
Yes!! Hear! Hear! Kristos Anesti!!
That chant is straight up boss music.
Best comment so far! Byzantine chants are the best. Christ has risen! Hristos anesti! ☦
Thank you for the comment, Greek Orthodox Chanting connects you directly with the Divine !
@@robertnickrevnic He is risen indeed! Alithos anesti!

So incredible, my favourite part of the coronation

The first or last Constantine
@@ZachRULES96 totally unrelated ! Charles is anglosaxon, Constantine Illyro-Roman
Apart from the wonderful Parry's 'I was glad', this Greek Orthodox chant was stunning .... made the ceremony feel very connected to history.... very very beautiful.
As a Russian Orthodox, I love hearing the great Greek Orthodox chants, we sing many of tbe same hymns. Fantastic
Don’t forget Philip was Greek Orthodox. Χριστός Ανέστη!
Αληθός Ανέστη! From a Greek-American!
He renounced his Orthodoxy. He was an Apostate.
@@orthodoxtraditionalists Remember we are not Donatists. Pray for him then. His sinfulness doesn't negate blessings of others i.e. the King.
Well, from what I've read Charles' grandmother (Philip's mom) was a very devout Orthodox woman and Charles has reportedly visited Athos and other Orthodox pilgrimage sites many times. Let the Holy Spirit guide him to lead his kingdom to the true faith ☦️👑 🇬🇧
@@pano7514 the Greek is in the heart. He was Greek through and through in his heart and it's obvious if you ever listened to him talking.
Greetings from an Orthodox Christian.
Long live the King.
May God bless!
THATS BLASPHEMY
@@armatolos_1234What is "this"?
As a Greek Orthodox this moment was surreal. Felt like the coronation of a Byzatnine Emperor. God Bless King Charles. He is an enlightened monarch indeed.
this is exactly how I felt too...
Everything about it is Orthodox. The Anointing Oil, the clothing, the Scripture, and briefly the music.
Oh really...??!!!and what about female bishops and priests in Anglican church, gay priests also....?what about UK's involment in giving albanian pro-muslim KLA terrorists political and military support in fight against Christian Orthodox Serbs back in 1998-99 in Kosovo...give me a break please..killing inocent children in Iraq Syria, etc, backing the radial opposition movements who demolish Christian churches in Middle East...nothing to do with holy Byzantine emperrors don't compare it with this please...or speak for yourself, 'cause i am a christian orhodox, nothing less than you...
The Kings Great Aunt was Orthodox nun Saint Elizaveta Romanova.
It was stunning.
There was something very mystical and ancient about this portion of the coronation. It was no accident that King Charles chose this Byzantine chant for the service. It is a good omen for his reign.
But...the Byzantines where crushed?
@@silver4831 we are still alive and well and we can’t wait to kick the barbaric Turks out sent them back to their home land in Mongolian mountains
@@silver4831 they lasted more than a millennia tho.
@@GeorgeDenis. And for most of that time they where pagans, real odd connection.
@@silver4831 nope . Eastern Roman empire was Christian since the time of Constantine the Great until the fall in 1453.
This Greek chanting is magical
As someone who is half English and half Greek Cypriot, the meeting of these two traditions, both dear to me, really moved me. King Charles has visited mount Athos and has a collection of icons. He has more Orthodox sympathies than his father had. Think Phillip wasn't keen on his Greek 'heritage' (Danish) but Charles is more inclined.
...you half Cypriot??? And still watching your half country under occupation??
Phillip was born in Greece and had Greek heritage since his family came long time ago.
But Charles has stronger bond to Greek tradition.
@@innosanto Philip was Danish heritage, glyksburgh German family, not Greek, yes his relatives ruled Greece, but the're no greeks
@@user-wy7em9fm2c
Today's royal families have no ethnic origin. They are families resulting from the marriage of many Byzantine, Roman, German, Anglo-Saxon, French, Spanish, etc. princes and princesses.
@wardafournello ...true, bastardized like the rest of us, thus "luck" gave them the upper hand
Respect from Constantinople as a Pontic Greek 🇬🇷🦅
The liberation of Constantinople is coming soon.
From the Greek Emperors in Hagia Sofia, till the King of the British Empire. It survives even in 2023

@@alexandrosmoutsios8613 a common missinterpretation, the use of the common language doesn’t mean it became greek

The shift of the atmosphere when the Greek Orthodox himn hits is just astonishing! Everyone gangsta until that moment 😮!
This brings back memories of the Byzantine emperor in Hagia Sophia. Stunning
May I assume you were there?
@@madamedellaporte4214 haha who knows. Just joking 😄

@@katerinapatiniotis5598 So pick any of them then. Pretty sure OP was speaking generally

I was completely and utterly swept away into the distant past during this.😳
Well, if you are Greek Orthodox, it is every Sunday and feasts and very much in the present.
I think this ancient byzantine chant was the highlight of the ceremony , so spiritual, felt like Jesus was there himself ❤❤❤
You felt that right, the true living God Jesus Christ has only one Church and one truth, Orthodox Church.

That Greek Byzantine Chant was outstanding and sounded direct from Mount Athos ❤
Something about the Byzantine Chant just feels Imperial.
Now this chant could raise the deads
more like put the living to dead
@Flou22 most moving chant I know to date
@@astroprotector The spiritually dead definitely would not appreciate something like this.
Everyone’s amazed reaction to the Orthodox chant and the immediate sincerity that it emits is just beautiful. Orthodoxy is the purest most graceful of the Christian denominations, the true church. IC XC NIKA☦️
Heavenly sound ! It was an amazing moment! It sounded realy amazing.
My favourite part of the coronation. It gives us a glimpse of what a Byzantine emperor’s coronation would have been like. Beautiful chanting
It would have been a lot more beautiful and marvellous. They had access to a lot of the originak Christian relics you know. And nothing can match the beauty of Hagia Sophia when she was untouched by the Muslimd and Crusaders.
I liked this part very much. Gave this part of the ceremony an appropriate and beautiful archaic touch.
As an orthodox l thank you all so much . God save the king. From a country that His Mazesty has visited a lot of times . Greece. We love you all.
Είμαι κι εγώ Έλληνας. Και από μένα, το ίδιο!
@@zabadazidit γεια σου πατριώτη!!!!!!!
Wow !!! The best moment in the whole coronation is this Orthodox chant
This was so spine tingling to hear the Byzantine chant
The Coronation is better than anything Hollywood puts out.
Yeh because it’s not a movie. It’s very very serious. We’ve been doing this for a thousand years+
True
Because it’s real ancient and Godly not satanic. It’s pure.
In Orthodox tradition, nothing changed for 2000 years,
Kyire Elesion, God have mercy
In honour to his grandmother , Princess Alice of Greece and Denmark and his father Prince Phillip of Greece
AMIN!
Phillips fatherAndrew was a true Greek. He fought the Turks valiantly
As someone who is from English and Greek parents, I found it absolutely brilliant
Right on, brother!
I loved this chant so beautiful.
Constantinople should never have become Turkish.
The King has very close relationships with Greece and the Orthodoxy ...... Long live the King... Greetings from the Orthodox Greece... This sound of the Vyzantine Hymn is called " LEGETOS "or sound D (Δ) .. it is the most celebratory sound...
I absolutely loved this greek hymn made me think i was back in the 11th or 12th century for a few minutes absolutely beautiful chanting ✝️
Every Sunday in Greece and on feast days.
Greek Orthodox is the best religion. Pure love of God. The King knows that ❤
It says approximately: “Lord God, protect the King and the Son of the King” followed by verses of the Psalms 71.
And it ends “Lord save the Emperor. Hallelujah. Glory to Thee, Oh Lord, Glory to Thee”
I wonder if this is not a hymn from the coronation ceremony of the Eastern Roman Emperors. I think is more than a homage to the late prince Philip….
It was the last hymn that played to Saint Sophia in Constantinople 1453 for the Last emperor Constantine Palelogos.
Of course it was more than just a tribute to Philip. It was chosen for that very specific moment he received the Sword. It's a very important and symbolic moment.
"Lord Save the King" it says 3 times. Not the Emperor. The ancient greek word Βασιλεύς (Vasilefs =King) started to be used also in the East Roman Empire at 7th century AD by the Emperor Herakleios. He was the one to lead the first ever crusade against the Persians that had stolen the Holy Cross from Jerusalem. At the same time Avars and Slavs attacked Konstantinople unsuccessfully. The nights of the siege a glorious hymn had written to honour the Saint of all Saints the Mother of God, which helped the defenders of the City to defeat the enemies :Τη Υπερμάχω Στρατηγώ.
The same hymn was used at the coronations of Byzantine Kings! Very important thing for most westerners to understand.
Charles connection with Agion Oros probably made him learn how important would be used at his coronation.
This was amazing to listen to. I loved this and Sir Bryn Terfel singing i'n Welsh. Absolutely beautiful, they made me quite emotional ❤
I totally agree. If you watch the part where Sir Bryn Terfyl is singing, you can see the transfixed reactions of this Byzantium Choir. He was truly majestic. I get goosebumps every time I watch it. I can only imagine how it must've sounded within the Cathedral walls.
@@suzannetabone5578 Glad someone else has commented on this. There are a few opera snobs that I have seen that have tried to fault Bryn's performance, I'm no Opera expert but thought his singing, and this chant, were both deeply moving and transported me to another time and place. I noticed the Greek choir members with looks of admiration at Bryn's singing. Both wonderful.
@@nigelw7626 Everyone is an expert nowadays. The whole ceremony was simply sublime, but those two performances connected with me on a very emotional level. We have so much to be proud of and it's good to be reminded of that nowadays.
May his Majesty 👑Charles III declare his Orthodox Faith☦️☦️☦️
We hope that the Byzantine Empire will once again rule Turkey middle east and North Africa, as it was at the height of its power with the Orthodox faith ☦️☦️
@@ramiounoughi7029 First we need to atone for our sins to be worthy. We are still unworthy sinners unworthy of the City and God's love. If we make God our refuge and our fortress, if we dwell in the temple of the Lord, if we place all our faith and hopes in him then all will be restored to us and more. We must walk in the path of the righteous and not of the ungodly.

May the orthodox return to the Catholic Church.

As a Greek Orthodox Christian, this was my favourite part of the coronation!
Best part of the ceremony. Archaic, sacred, ancient
If you like the greek vyzantine psalms you need to visit greek orthodox churches, when visiting Greece or Cyprus, not just..... you know.....
Also Bulgaria, Albania, Romania, Serbia, Syria. They also use the Byzantine Chant in liturgical tradition in contrast to Russia, Ukraine, Belarus where they use opera music instead

It will revive, according to the Saints' prophecies. In Constantinople, Hagia Sophia, there will be the Orthodox Liturgy again.
Read Saint Paisios the Athonite, Saint Joseph the Vatopedine or Father Ephraim of Arizona's words on this. Christ has risen! ☦
I'm Greek, but I believe we have no right of saying such things. We have to respect that there are 15 million Turks living in Constantinople. Of course the Turks have obligations too. They must respect the monuments of our history. It's unacceptable that Hagia Sofia became a mosque.

Saying its unacceptable does not suffice. Turkish policy is erasing cultures, people and memory, throughout centuries.

The oldest Christian faith which kept to its original doctrines and teachings.
Not just ancient, but eternal!
As a Greek I know these hymns. King Charles is very lovely in Greece. May God bless UK king. Philip must be proud...
I hope the first action he does as king is purge and dissolve the Woke Mind Virus in the UK.
He is a climate change activist.
I wish, but he does not have that kind of power. He's more of a figurehead, and our elected idiots lead instead.
He is part of the World Economic Forum.

My favourite part of the coronation
Я поначалу удивился византийскому распеву на английской коронации. А потом вспомнил, кем был отец короля, ныне покойный принц Филипп. Он был греком. На самом деле, это песнопение идеально подчеркивает сакральность церемонии, серьёзность и древность действа, и одновременно делает его торжественным.
Поправка. Принц Филипп греком по национальности не был, так как он относился к династии Глюксбургов. Однако принц Филипп исповедовал греческое православие до того как перейти в англиканство. Король Карл III таким образом оказывает уважение к прошлому отца. И я должен сказать, что это очень сильное уважение.
@@RoboBobo-to7fz да, спасибо за поправку

Prince Philip was English-German-Danish but as a descendant of the Saxe-Coburgs, he inherited the Greek throne, as the various Royals of Europe were allocated those countries in the 1815-1917 period which had left the Ottoman Empire and which were not (yet) republics. Unfortunately for him, Greece became a Republic shortly before he was born.

The Coronation was so beautiful and moving. It brought me to tears a few times. I'm thankful the public was allowed to witness it.
Beautiful moment, ❤❤❤
Tradtion never dies. This coronation is proof of that. You lack something in your character and spirit if you did not feel the hairs raise up on the back of your neck.
I mean if you aren't Christian or a royalist this means very little.
Tradition never dies if the nation that created it still exists and keep practising it. Unfortunatelly those things are changing rapidly in Europe.
O canto bizantino deu ares de SAGRADO à coroação. Ave Império!
I am shocked 😮😮😮 i knew that King Charles was visiting the Greek Orthodox monasteries on Mount Athos in Chalkidiki Greece pretty regularly as his father did, but I NEVER thought that a Byzantine chant will be sang at the coronation and echo through the Westminster Abby!!! AWESOME!!
If the commentators will shutup for a bit so we can listen to the said Chant!
Oh my !! absolutely love this beautiful byzantine chant! So mysterious and haunting ❤
I wish I could have this chant without the commentary over the top
You’ll find it in Greek Orthodox Churches. ✝️
@Angelwings3 oh OK thank you 😊
Glory to Christ and Orthodoxy ☝️☦️
Very important ceremony, Sikhs symbol of Miri& Piri. May God Bless The King. 🙏🪯🇬🇧☀️
I love the fact that our chants are used for this but still remember guys, ecumenism is bad, I wish to see The King fully accept Orthodoxy one say
he never will as he is the ordained Head of the Protestant Church and guardian of the church in Scotland. It is a fundamental part of his Coronation.
But he was very clear he wanted this chant sung as a nod to his father. The oils with which he was anointed came from the same place in Jerusalem where his mother is buried.
@@1chish well, if one wants, one get, specialy as the chief of the church, might decide it, just like the russians converted to Orthodoxy, all at once, by the tzar's will, in the aprox.year 900 after Christ. That's the only option, since we, as ortodox, don't feel the need to have women-priests, nor iftar in our churches, not to talk about the novus ordo of the catholics, with their new rapp/trapp priests and so on. But was all just a show, nothing else.
@@claudiatalmaciu5062 Well we are a democracy unlike the Tzars of Russia centuries ago. The King is head of the Church of England (and guardian of the Church in Scotland) by UK Law. So unless parliament changes that law nothing will change.

The Byzantine Chore is chanting the Psalm 71 of David. Here are the lyrics:

Give the king your justice, O God,
and your righteousness to the royal son!
2 May he judge your people with righteousness,
and your poor with justice!
3 Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people,
and the hills, in righteousness!
4 May he defend the cause of the poor of the people,
give deliverance to the children of the needy,
and crush the oppressor!
5 May they fear you[a] while the sun endures,
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations!
6 May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass,
like showers that water the earth!
7 In his days may the righteous flourish,
and peace abound, till the moon be no more!
8 May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River[b] to the ends of the earth!
9 May desert tribes bow down before him,
and his enemies lick the dust!
10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands
render him tribute;
may the kings of Sheba and Seba
bring gifts!
11 May all kings fall down before him,
all nations serve him!
12 For he delivers the needy when he calls,
the poor and him who has no helper.
13 He has pity on the weak and the needy,
and saves the lives of the needy.
14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life,
and precious is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live;
may gold of Sheba be given to him!
May prayer be made for him continually,
and blessings invoked for him all the day!
16 May there be abundance of grain in the land;
on the tops of the mountains may it wave;
may its fruit be like Lebanon;
and may people blossom in the cities
like the grass of the field!
17 May his name endure forever,
his fame continue as long as the sun!
May people be blessed in him,
all nations call him blessed!
18 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
who alone does wondrous things.
19 Blessed be his glorious name forever;
may the whole earth be filled with his glory!
Amen and Amen!

It’s a tribute to His Late Papa Prince Philip , late grandma Alice of Greece and also perhaps to 1st cousins side (Late King Constantine)

chant not song.
Byzantine hymns are marvelous. If you want to listen to more you can try playlists in TH-cam. I would recommend some like "kyrie ekekraxa" and exomologiste to kyrio .Enjoy😊
If you're ever feeling the world coming down on you, find comfort in "Kyrie Ekekraxa", loosely translated as "Lord, I reach out to You".
It is a connection straight to one's soul.
When shit gets real, the Orthodox chants come out.
That is a hood classic from Constantinople. Based!
Props to the one choir guy sustaining that pedal tone
It is what makes it all trance-like. All church services have it.
Pray that this King actually helps England and Europe... He needs to address the problems that Ethnic Europeans are going through
Stunning
