It's a phrase from Belshazzar's Feast...

In a grotto in the garden of La Mortella in Ischia, where William Walton used to live.
Clever you, re. the music!

I'm quite amazed, actually, that you recognised the music from just that snippet of score!

And somewhat fittingly, the grotto is called The Temple of the Sun!

Don't be amazed Pyxell, I sing in a big choir and over the years I've sung that work at least half a dozen times.

It's a very dramatic work where the heathens are worshipping false gods blah blah blah...and that little snippet you've caught on camera is one of the big moments of outrage.

So there you have it!
