Prelude for Orchestra. Composed by William Walton. Arranged by Gerhart Drijvers. Baton Music Orchestral Series. Prelude for Orchestra. Full Score and set of parts. Duration 6:00. Baton Music #BM117-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM117-SET).

The Prelude for Orchestra (Granada) was commissioned in 1961 by Granada Television for use in their broadcasts. Walton had composed in the genre several times before (Crown Imperial, Spitfire etc. ) but never resorts to formula or stereotype always comes up with fresh ideas. The change of key in the middle of the 'big tune! for instance (C to E flat then back again) might have sounded corny had a lesser composer done it; Walton's doing it makes us long for the tune's return.
