The two hundred and tenth classical recording: #754 William Walton - Belshazzar's Feast
This piece really felt like it just hit everything. The at times jubilant music sets the tone wherever it leads you, the vocals, whether jubilant or more oppressive, enforcing more of that whether supported by the music or standing on their own. It's a magnificent piece, big in most places but in a way that fits the narrative it aims for.
