Jerusalem — Sheet Music for Orchestra & Choir
Hubert Parry’s timeless anthem, arranged for full orchestra & SATB choir by Paul Lorenz — concert-ready, instantly downloadable
Every professional conductor who has programmed Jerusalem knows the moment of quiet dread when the ordered parts arrive — and the question is always the same: will this edition hold up under a full orchestra, a 120-voice choir, and the weight of England’s unofficial national anthem? Parry’s 1916 setting of William Blake’s visionary text has been performed at coronations, royal weddings, and the Last Night of the Proms for over a century. The audience already knows every word. The stakes could not be higher.
This professional edition by Paul Lorenz was built for exactly that moment. Re-engraved from the ground up to MOLA standards, it delivers a complete orchestra & SATB choir package as a single instant download — conductor score, all orchestral parts, choral parts, and piano/organ rehearsal reduction. No hire fees. No waiting for print orders. No discoveries at the first rehearsal that half the brass parts are missing. Every staff size, every page turn, every cue line has been positioned to serve one purpose: letting you and your musicians focus entirely on the music.

This edition is a reliable choice for cathedral choirs, civic orchestras, and university music programs programming ceremonial or patriotic repertoire.
Do I need a performance license?
Parry’s original 1916 composition is in the public domain (Parry died 1918; copyright expired). This arrangement by Paul Lorenz is licensed for unlimited performances with your purchase — no additional ASCAP, BMI, or PRS reporting required for the arrangement itself. For ticketed performances, standard venue licensing applies as usual.
Can the arrangement be customized for my ensemble?
Absolutely. Paul Lorenz Music offers bespoke customization — a capability unique in the professional sheet music market. Whether you need the piece transposed to a different key, brass reduced for a chamber ensemble, or an alternative part substituted for an unavailable instrument, we can tailor this arrangement to your exact requirements. Contact us directly to discuss your needs.
What is your refund policy?
Due to the digital nature of our products, we cannot offer refunds once the download has been accessed. We encourage you to review the score preview carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
