WELCOME TO THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY SEASON OF THE FORT WORTH SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA!
C O NTEN TS SY MPHO N I C SE RI ES 4 A ME RICA N FESTIVA L 11 PO PS SE RI ES 12
I have always said that the experience of hearing music live, in the concert hall, is like no other. It cannot be replaced by any other form of listening. It is a communal experience, a visceral one, happening at only one moment in time. At that moment it becomes a very human experience that is not simply about technique and aesthetics, but is actually bigger than any one of those important parts. It is food for the soul. As a body needs nutrition to sustain it, so does the soul need music.

Miguel Harth-Bedoya MUSIC DIRECTOR
For more than a decade, I have had the privilege of being at the helm of this team of talented and inspired musicians. I am honored to lead the Orchestra into this important and momentous season, which also happens only at one moment in time. We are excited to share this moment, and our music, with you. Because the FWSO belongs to us all. It is OUR orchestra. So let’s celebrate our 100th season in style, together. After all, Life Is Better With Music.
We invite you to share in the joyous cele bration of this, our Centennial Season. A CENTURY OF MUSIC MAKING
MARCH 1912
It may not have been the most auspicious beginning, that first appearance of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra in spring of 1912. The Star-Telegram reported on the occasion, and things were a bit rough by today’s standards: the conductor was also the flute player, and trombones outnumbered violas by three to one.
MARCH 2012
But in fits and starts over the years, that ensemble evolved into today’s world-class Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, performing the finest symphonic music in one of the greatest concert halls anywhere—Bass Performance Hall.

THE GREATEST MUSIC BY THE GREATEST COMPOSERS
Music Director Miguel Harth-Bedoya has transformed (the Fort Worth Symphony) into a major-league orchestra.
Each program includes composers selected by Miguel Harth-Bedoya as the most important in the history of symphonic music—Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Wagner, Tchaikovsky, Mahler, Stravinsky, Elgar, Sibelius, Prokofiev, Bartók, Rachmaninoff and more. No composer is repeated, giving audiences perhaps the richest, most thrilling season of music the Fort Worth Symphony has ever offered.

Variations on a Theme by J. Haydn Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat Minor Symphony No. 9 in C Major, “The Great”
Nobuyuki Tsujii’s gold-medal win at the 2009 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition inspired what Time magazine called “Nobu fever” on an international scale. Now he returns to Fort Worth to play one of the most beloved piano concertos of all time. We’ll close with another powerhouse, Schubert’s “Great,” inspired by the lovely Austrian landscape.

Symphony in Three Movements Oboe Concerto in C Major Variations on an Original Theme, “Enigma Variations”
The sweet, haunting sound of the oboe gets the spotlight as our principal oboist plays Mozart. “Enigma Variations,” Elgar’s masterpiece, paints vivid musical portraits of the composer’s closest friends, with an intriguing mystery at the heart of it all.

The majesty of Sibelius’ most popular symphony provides a big finish.

Daniil Trifonov
Network Piano Concerto No. 3 in D Minor Symphony No. 5 in D Minor
Daniil Trifonov is the most recent winner of Moscow’s Tchaikovsky competition, the contest that launched Van Cliburn into stardom. He’ll take on the devilishly difficult Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3. In the face of Stalin’s brutal artistic censorship, Shostakovich filled his Fifth Symphony with lyricism and Russian nationalism, but was he being subversive? You’ll enjoy the sweeping melodies either way.

This will be a joyous occasion providing powerful, visceral entertainment on a grand scale.
