Walton wrote a very famous "something"...

209.131.202.66

..the score to Olivier's celebrated film version of Henry V. Walton's score is quite wonderful. One of my all-time favorites.

Walton scored other films and contributed to both movies and documentaries: Olivier's Hamlet and As You Like It; Escape Me Now; a famous piece from the Battle of Britain called the "Battle In The Air"; and the Spitfire March from First of The Few. I'm sure there are others but those are the ones I'm familiar with and the ones that are readily available on recordings. Naxos is doing a series of recordings of the complete Walton works for orchestra and the film music is available on 3 excellent albums from the Academy of St. Martin in-the-Fields.
