Walton and his "rhythmic vitality"

We've just played Walton 1 (the first symphony). And I thought, I really like his rhythmic vitality! His music seems to me often so full of energy of a "healthy" kind! Life affirming! Ha! As I said, vitality. I am not always impressed with how he develops his ideas. But, still, those ideas are often quite attractive! Which is more than can be said about plenty of other composers.

And then I thought, there must be there people thinking exactly that! So I curiously searched , and found really tons of articles mentioning those exact words, in relation to his music: "rhythmic vitality", etc. So here's an entirely unoriginal observation, it seems!
