British composer Joby Talbot has composed music for the stage and screen alike, with films like Sing, Sing 2, and Wonka with Timothée Chalamet under his belt. In September, a troupe of ballet dancers joins the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra to bring Talbot’s celebrated musical interpretation of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland to life in Bass Performance Hall. The orchestra opens the concert with Mozart’s famous “Prague” Symphony, so named for the exceptional wind players of Bohemia for whom Mozart penned the piece.

The great composer Johannes Brahms’ last public appearance was for a concert of his fourth and final symphony.

To open its season, the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra will perform Jean Sibelius’ patriotic Finlandia, a work protesting Russian censorship with a glorious hymn, before continuing with another Nordic masterpiece, Edvard Grieg’s famous Piano Concerto.
