Nashville Symphony Orchestra

The Nashville Symphony Orchestra on the Schermerhorn stage in Nashville, Tenn. Nashville Symphony

January 16, 2023

The Nashville Symphony shares a program that combines two beautiful statements of late Romanticism with music by one of the most exquisite orchestrators, Maurice Ravel. Suite of Five Pieces from Ma Mere l’Oye ( Mother Goose) was written amid the turmoil of the early years of modernism and is a veritable symphonic hit of the 20th century. Listen with guest host Valerie Kahler on this week’s episode of SymphonyCast.
