'''William''' Turner '''Walton''' (later Sir) (1902-1983) was an [[English]] [[composer]]. As a young man he was taken under the wing of the Sitwell family, supremely influential in the “artistic community at that time. He made his name with “''Façade''”, a sharp, witty and jazzy musical parody to nonsense verses by Edith Sitwell taking off the café and salon “scenes” of the 1920s. It is still performed/recorded in either complete or as a [[suite]] today.
