Our Story
The Nashville Civic Orchestra was born from the simple conviction that a city growing as quickly as Nashville creates space for new kinds of musical organizations to take root. We aim to build a home for dedicated musicians who want to grow, a stage for emerging composers and artists, and a bridge between the concert hall and the classroom. Built in Nashville, for Nashville.
We hope you'll join us as we grow alongside the city we love!
