Walton – Cello Concerto (1957)

Having composed a Viola Concerto in 1929, and Violin Concerto in 1939, it was in 1957 that Walton composed his third concerto – for Cello.

Like his other concerti, it opens with a moderately paced movement, moving to faster movement. This concerto then has theme and variations as its third and final movement.
