Walton - Belshazzar's Feast

This piece is designed for a very large choir. We keep it simple:

CHORUS 1 = SOP 1. CHORUS 2 = SOP 2, etc.

That is, if you are a Tenor 2 when we split, you sing the CHORUS 2 Tenor part. There are only a few divisi moments in the two-chorus passages; in such cases, section members should decide among themselves to achieve a good balance.

Ignore "SEMI" and "TUTTI" indications in the score until further direction by Jason. Everything necessary is indicated in the practice files. Tenors and Basses have one more track than trebles, FYI.

Track titles include starting and ending measure numbers.

Most importantly: these files are about pitches and rhythms. They don't accurately represent dynamics or articulations. Belshazzar's Feast is especially theatrical. Our performance will be much more gratifying if we follow the indications in the score. Thankfully, it's all spelled out.
