George Bridgetower (1778–1860) composed Jubilee: Rule Britannia & God Save the King for the Golden Jubilee of King George III, who entered his fiftieth year as regent on 25 October 1809. Comprised of an introductory chorus of "Rule Britannia" and a theme and four variations on "God Save the King," this little-known quintet for flute and strings is a brilliant and charming example of occasional music intended for private performance. It is also the most substantial surviving work by Bridgetower, the Afro-European violin virtuoso best known today as the original dedicatee of Beethoven’s "Kreutzer" Sonata for Violin and Piano, Op. 47. This edition includes the Jubilee alongside another work written for the same forces, Bridgetower’s arrangement of the overture to Cherubini’s opera Lodoïska.
