William Walton's "Walton: Belshazzar's Feast, Symphony No. 1" is a captivating journey through the world of classical music, released on March 8, 2011, under the LSO Live label. This album is a testament to Walton's mastery of composition, blending the dramatic and the sublime in a way that only a true maestro can.
The album is divided into two main works: "Belshazzar's Feast," a grand oratorio that tells the biblical story of King Belshazzar's downfall, and the "Symphony No. 1 in B-Flat Minor," a powerful and evocative symphony that showcases Walton's ability to create deeply moving music. The oratorio is a choral masterpiece, featuring a large cast of soloists and choir, while the symphony is a tour de force for the orchestra, with its complex rhythms and rich harmonies.
The album runs for 1 hour and 20 minutes, offering a substantial listen that rewards the listener with its depth and variety. From the stirring opening of "Thus Spake Isaiah" to the triumphant finale of the symphony, Walton's music is a constant source of inspiration and delight. Whether you're a seasoned classical music fan or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to impress with its technical brilliance and emotional resonance.
