About

Choreographed by Christopher Wheeldon, the Royal Ballet's 2011 production of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was their first full-scale commission in 20 years and was instantly acclaimed as a classic. Joby Talbot's score to the production, performed on this new recording by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, captures perfectly the madcap-yet-enchanting mood of the production – described by the New York Times as "the trump card for 'Alice'".

Also included on this disc is an earlier work for dance by Talbot created in collaboration with Christopher Wheeldon, 'Fools Paradise'.

"It's official: the Royal Ballet has a perennial hit on its hands… What truly sets it all spinning is the shimmering, urgent and mischievous music of the composer Joby Talbot." - The Times
