a| Chandos Anthems, HWV 246–256, is the common name of a set of anthems written by George Frideric Handel. These sacred choral compositions number eleven. The texts are psalms and combined psalm verses in English. Handel wrote the anthems as composer in residence at Cannons, the court of James Brydges, who became the First Duke of Chandos in 1719. His chapel was not yet finished, and services were therefore held at St Lawrence in Whitchurch. The scoring is intimate, in keeping with the possibilities there.

a| Each Anthem has it's own printed Table of Contents at the end.

g| Contains 7 Anthems in Score: 1. 'I will magnify Thee' [HWV 250, plate 72], 2. 'Let God arise' [HWV 256b, plate 73], 3. 'Let God arise' [HWV 256a, plate 74], 4. 'Have Mercy upon me O Lord' [HWV 248, plate 75], 5. 'O Come let us Sing unto the Lord' [HWV 253, plate 76], 6. 'O Sing unto the Lord a new song' [HWV 249b, plate 77], 8. 'As pants the Hart for cooling streams' [HWV 251b, plate 79].
