Holiday & Seasonal Event
No matter whether you're going out to drink green beer, to church, or both you can find plenty to do in Nashville on St. Patrick's Day.

3/1 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.

3/13-3/15 Ben Folds’ Piano Concerto

Be one of the very first to hear pop icon Ben Folds premiere his brand-new piano concerto, co-commissioned by the Nashville Symphony. He’ll bring his knack for memorable melodies and sophisticated musicianship to the stunning sound of a full symphony orchestra.

3/20-3/22 Kenny Loggins

With enduring hits like “Whenever I Call You Friend,” “This Is It,” “I’m Alright” and “Footloose,” Kenny Loggins created the soundtrack for a generation. Still at the height of his powers, he remains a brilliant singer-songwriter and guitarist, with an unquenchable passion for music. Get ready for a magical night when he joins the Nashville Symphony to sing his soulful songs straight from the heart!

3/27-3/29 Sibelius & Elgar

Experience a night of passion and romance with Elgar’s Concerto for Violin, a radiant piece overflowing with emotion. The composer dedicated the piece to his secret love, and it calls for some of the most jaw-dropping violin technique in the classical repertoire. Maestro Giancarlo Guerrero calls Sibelius one of classical music’s greatest composers, and his First Symphony is expansive, deeply personal and utterly captivating.
