Biografía de William Walton

William Walton

Sir William Turner Walton (Oldham, Lancashire, 29 de marzo de 1902 — Ischia, 8 de marzo de 1983), fue un gran compositor y director de orquesta británico.

Su estilo estuvo muy influido por Stravinski, Sibelius y el jazz y se caracteriza por una gran vitalidad rítmica, una agridulce armonía y una sabia conjunción de melodía romántica y brillante orquestación. Es recordado por sus obras orquestales, su música coral y ceremonial y por sus excelentes bandas sonoras. Sus primeras composiciones —especialmente Façade, sobre un poema de Edith Sitwell— le encumbraron como un compositor moderno, pero fueron sus trabajos orquestales y el oratorio Belshazzar's Feast los que le trajeron el reconocimiento internacional.
