A generous 4-disc Decca centenary survey spanning Walton's entire orchestral canvas — symphonies, concertos, Façade, Belshazzar's Feast, and the ceremonial showpieces. Litton and the Bournemouth Symphony deliver polished, well-engineered performances across an impressively broad programme. An ideal single-purchase introduction to one of Britain's most distinctive 20th-century voices.
