'Jerusalem' by English composer Hubert Parry was composed in 1916 to the words of William Blake's poem 'And did those feet in ancient time'. It rapidly gained huge popularity which it retains to this day, and is sometimes used as England's 'unofficial' national anthem. The piece has a fascinating history which includes connnections with the women's sufferage movement.

The Royal Choral Society was the first choir to sing this work in the Royal Albert Hall in 1916.
