2/1 The Barber of Seville

"Figaro! Figaro! Figaro!" From the mind of Rossini comes an undisputed masterpiece of love and laughter so funny even Bugs Bunny had to get into the act!

2/7-2/8 Ravel & Saint-Saëns

Ravel’s Piano Concerto will transform the Schermerhorn into a lively Parisian cabaret, with dizzying flights of fancy and some of the loveliest music of the composer’s career. After that, the colossal sound of our Martin Foundation Concert Organ will fill the concert hall in Saint-Saëns’ Organ Symphony, with notes so powerful that you’ll literally feel your seat shaking!

2/20-2/22 Classical Mystery Tour

It’s the best of The Beatles like you've never heard them: totally live, with the Nashville Symphony! The four musicians in Classical Mystery Tour look and sound just like John, Paul, George and Ringo, and they’ll perform 30 Beatles tunes exactly as they were written. Hear “Penny Lane” with a live trumpet section, “Yesterday” with an acoustic guitar and string quartet, and “A Day in the Life” with the swelling sound of a full symphony orchestra!

2/22 Knights & Princesses

Take musical tour through the magical world of fairy tales with music by Tchaikovsky, Prokofiev and much, much more. There will be lots of onstage excitement, courtesy of the lively juggling troupe Playing by Air!

2/28 Haydn & Strauss

Strauss’s Rosenkavalier was a massive hit when it was first performed a century ago. Hear why when the Nashville Symphony performs this rapturously beautiful piece, full of lush orchestration, lilting waltzes and voluptuous melodies. De Falla’s Nights in the Gardens of Spain is dark and mysterious, evoking the sensuous sound of flamenco guitars.
