Elizabethan Serenade
The "Elisabethan Serenade" is one of the best-known works by the British composer Ronald Binge (1910-1979). Binge was a famous representative of the British Light Music. The Serenade’s catchy and lovely melody was first published as "Andante cantabile". However, in 1952, when Queen Elizabeth II became the Queen of England, the composer changed the title to "Elizabethan Serenade", presumably to express the optimistic mood of the new Elizabethan age. The "Elizabethan Serenade" was also used as the theme tune for a popular BBC radio programme, and various authors created song texts for it in a variety of languages. In the German-speaking world, the most successful version was certainly that of the Günter Kallmann Choir from the 1960s.
