WALTON, W.: Anon in Love / Façade Settings / A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table (English Song, Vol. 1) (Lott, M. Hill, C. Ogden, G. Johnson)
Originally released as part of The English Song Series on the Collins Classics label, this recording explores Walton's most important vocal works including Anon in Love, setting of Elizabethan love lyrics originally composed for Sir Peter Pears and Julian Bream, and A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table. The youthful composer's brilliance is also underlined in small gems such as The Winds, a poem by Swinburne which the precocious Walton wrote at 16 years of age.
