Choral music preoccupied Walton throughout his life and developed from his experience as a chorister at Christ Church, Oxford. Alongside Belshazzar's Feast, these four larger-scale works for chorus and orchestra stand testimony to his expertise in the field, and include the orchestral version of The Twelve, commissioned with words by W.
