About this arrangement

Concert band concert band - Grade 4 SKU: BF.BM117-SCORE Prelude for Orchestra. Composed by William Walton. Arranged by Gerhart Drijvers. Baton Music orchestral series. Prelude for Orchestra. Full score. Duration 6:00. Baton Music #BM117-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM117-SCORE). 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.
