About William Walton Edition
In March 2014 Oxford University Press published the last volume in its magnificent William Walton Edition, the only complete critical edition of a 20th-century British composer's oeuvre. All 24 volumes are handsomely printed and bound. Walton's entire output is now available to scholars and performers in a definitive and fully practical edition, based on the form in which the composer ultimately wished his music to be performed. The general editor, David Lloyd-Jones - the eminent conductor, English music specialist, and founder of Opera North - invited a world-class expert to edit each volume. Carefully researched introductory essays place the works in their historical context and in the composer's oeuvre, and there are full critical notes.

The Walton Coronation Marches
As noted in the score, these marches are taken from Volume 17 of the William Walton Edition (2009.) Regarding Crown Imperial, the Preface states this is the first publication of Crown Imperial at its full length and in its original orchestration. And what a pleasure it is to have the original in print! The Preface is excellent, containing a thorough history of both works, including a discussion of all the various cuts in Crown. Editing, print quality and paper are all outstanding, as befits an Oxford publication. As usual, service and delivery by Sheet Music Plus was great. These scores are a must for every student of British ceremonial music.
