NASHVILLE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

Led by music director Giancarlo Guerrero and president and CEO Alan D. Valentine, the GRAMMY^® award-winning Nashville Symphony has a growing international reputation for its recordings and innovative programming. With more than 140 performances annually, the 84-member Nashville Symphony is an arts leader in Nashville and beyond, offering a broad range of classical, pops and jazz concerts, special events, children’s concerts and community outreach programs. The Nashville Symphony has received far-reaching acclaim for its nineteen recordings on Naxos, the world’s leading classical label, and one on Decca, making the Nashville Symphony currently one of the most active recording orchestras in the country. These recordings have received thirteen GRAMMY^® nominations and six GRAMMY^® wins, most recently for the orchestra’s recording of works by American composer Michael Daugherty (Naxos 8.559635). The winning categories included Best Orchestral performance.

In 2003, the Nashville Symphony broke ground on the $123.5 million Schermerhorn Symphony Center, the orchestra’s new home, which opened on 9 September 2006, to critical acclaim. Highlights of the Symphony Center include the 1,844-seat Laura Turner Concert Hall and the 3,000-square-foot Mike Curb Family Music Education Hall. This new cultural center in downtown Nashville has had a significant artistic, social and economic impact on the city, and has given the Nashville Symphony a venue equal to its growing reputation and superb music-making.
