专辑简介
Walton's searing oratorio, Belshazzar's Feast, written for baritone, chorus and a huge orchestra with an augmented brass section, takes as its subject the scene from the Bible (Book of Daniel) in which, at King Belshazzar's Feast, a hand appears and prophetically writes a doom laden message on the wall. Often compared on account of its pulsating drive and barbaric splendour with Orff's Carmina Burana, Belshazzar's Feast is now regarded as the finest British large-scale choral work since Elgar's Dream of Gerontius.
