We guarantee you've never heard an instrument like this before. 🎶 For Edgar Meyer's Concerto for Bass No. 2 in B, the composer called in our Principal Percussionist Sam Bacco to build a custom PVC-pipe instrument to accompany the virtuosic solo bass. Join us this Friday and Saturday to experience this one-of-a-kind concerto for yourself.
Beethoven’s “Eroica” marks a defining moment in classical music history—a bold work born out of personal crisis and creative transformation. As part of our America 250 celebration, this powerful symphony anchors a program that also shines a spotlight on two of Nashville’s own. GRAMMY-winning double bassist Edgar Meyer performs his Bass Concerto No. 2 alongside the Nashville Symphony’s principal percussionist Sam Bacco. Barber’s explosive Medea’s Meditation and Dance of Vengeance opens the program with drama and fire.
Don’t miss this thrilling showcase of American artistry—past, present, and future. Tickets: link in bio. 🎶
