EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, seven young choristers of the Chapel Royal make their way along a bustling London street towards Buckingham Palace, carrying their musical instruments and dressed in their distinctive State uniforms. The scene captures the tradition and history of this revered choir, which can be traced back to before the Norman Conquest. The year is 1910, and the boys are making their way to the palace for the 11 o'clock service, marking the much-anticipated return of the King to London. The Chapel Royal choir, consisting of six adult male singers and ten boys, has been an integral part of the British monarchy for centuries, providing devotional music for the royal family and their guests. The choir's State uniforms, which date back to the reign of Charles II, add an air of grandeur and tradition to the scene. The boys' crisp white shirts, black trousers, and red velvet caps are a striking contrast to the Edwardian-era clothing of the people they pass on the street. As they walk, the boys carry on a centuries-old custom that has been passed down through generations. Their faces are focused and determined, reflecting the seriousness of their role as choristers in the royal chapel. The photograph captures a moment in time, preserving the history and tradition of this classical and religious institution. The Chapel Royal, with its rich history and deep-rooted customs, continues to be an important part of the British monarchy and the country's cultural heritage. The choristers' morning walk to the palace for a service is a testament to the enduring power of music and tradition in the lives of the royal family and the people of England.
