Hubert Parry wrote symphonies, chamber music and large choral works, yet the four-minute Jerusalem has largely eclipsed them. Written for the nationalist Fight for Right movement during the First World War, the song soon made Parry uneasy; he withdrew it from the organisation and gave its copyright to Millicent Fawcett and the women’s suffrage movement.
