Vocal Music : William Walton Edition vol. 8 Sheet music
Edited by Steuart Bedford
Part of the William Walton Edition series
Sheet music
Description
For voice and piano or guitar This volume contains newly edited versions of all Walton's songs for voice and piano, together with Anon in Love for voice and guitar and songs from radio plays.
It also includes the first publication of the scores of the orchestral versions of Anon in Love and A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table.
Walton wrote songs throughout his life, the first, 'Tell me where is Fancy bred?', written when he was a chorister at Christ Church, Oxford, the last, A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table, a song-cycle for Elisabeth Schwarzkopf written in the early 1960s.
They all reveal his ear for word-setting, an imaginative response to the text, and an ability to conjure striking musical images from his chosen material.
