4a	(Code: ) (Expenses $ 20,584,128 including grants of $ 0 ) (Revenue $ 14,388,795 )
	Artistic Programming : Led by Music Director Giancarlo Guerrero, the Nashville Symphony inspires, entertains and educates through excellence in musical performance. Concert programming is one of the key drivers for fulfilling this mission, beginning with the orchestra's flagship Classical Series, which consists of 14 concert weekends exploring the full breadth of classical repertoire, from Baroque to contemporary. In 2017/18, highlights of the Classical Series included Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, Haydn's The Creation, Strauss' Also sprach Zarathustra, Mahler's Fifth Symphony and Verdi's Requiem, as well as contemporary works by C.F. Kip Winger, Esa-Pekka Salonen and Enrico Chapela. Guest soloists included pianist Andre Watts, violinist Jennifer Koh, guitarist Jason Vieaux and cellist Johannes Moser. The Nashville Symphony further fulfilled its commitment to championing contemporary American orchestral music through live recordings of works by Christopher Rouse, Jonathan Leshnoff and Tobias Picker for forthcoming releases on the Naxos label. In addition, the orchestra released two recordings on Naxos: Terry Riley's The Palmian Chord Ryddle and Wind Concertos, featuring works by Frank Ticheli, Behzad Ranjbaran and Brad Warnaar. Released in 2016, the orchestra's Naxos recording of Jennifer Higdon's All Things Majestic earned two GRAMMY Awards in 2018, including Best Classical Compendium and Best Classical Composition. The Nashville Symphony's Composer Lab & Workshop was created to provide emerging American-based composers with the opportunity to develop their talents, gain hands-on experience working an orchestra and showcase their work for a live audience. In 2017/18, the second round of this program showcased the work of four young composers: Emily Cooley, James Diaz, Liliya Ugay and Shen Yiwen, who traveled to Nashville to meet and work with music director Giancarlo Guerrero and workshop director Aaron Jay Kernis, among others. In addition to its classical programming, the Nashville Symphony offers a wide variety of concerts for the Middle Tennessee community, including pop, jazz, family events and movies with live orchestra. Of special note, composer and conductor John Williams joined the Nashville Symphony onstage for its sold-out opening gala concert. Led by the Nashville Symphony and the Jewish Federation of Nashville, Violins of Hope Nashville was a unique community-wide initiative in spring 2018, with 27 partners and 60 events, all revolving around a collection of restored instruments played by Jewish musicians during the Holocaust. Over the course of several months, this initiative drove the creation of music, visual art, theater, readings and educational activities, reaching a total of 45,000 people. In tandem with Violins of Hope Nashville, the Nashville Symphony received a $20,000 Art Works grant from the National Endowment for the Arts in support of the world premiere of Jonathan Leshnoff's Symphony No. 4 "Heichalos," which was recorded for release on Naxos. The work was performed on instruments from the Violins of Hope collection.

	Education & Community Engagement Program: The Nashville Symphony provides an array of free education and engagement opportunities at Schermerhorn Symphony Center and throughout the mid-state region, reaching a total of 70,000 people. Many programs align with state academic standards and provide lesson plans and other resources to participating educators. Highlights include the following programs: Accelerando is designed to prepare gifted young students of diverse ethnic backgrounds to pursue music at the collegiate level and beyond. In the 2017/18 season, nine students participated in the program, receiving mentorship and private lessons, performance and masterclass opportunities, music theory and history coursework, and opportunities to attend summer performance workshops - all offered at no cost. The Young People's Concerts series for students in grades K-12 reached 12,790 students over 10 concerts. Selected programs tied in to the Violins of Hope initiative, featuring music by Amy Beach, William Grant Still and John Williams. Teachers received downloadable curriculum with lesson plans and music. Symphony musicians visited schools around Middle Tennessee to offer instruction and coaching for band and orchestra students via the Sectionals program, reaching 2,381 students in total. Curb Open Dress Rehearsals offered opportunities for student groups to experience Nashville Symphony rehearsals with soloists including Andre Watts, Jennifer Koh and Pinchas Zukerman, reaching 1,016 attendees in total. With the Ensembles in the Schools program, which reached 1,956 students this season, Nashville Symphony musicians presented age-appropriate small ensemble concerts for young listeners. An interactive program offered in partnership with the Country Music Hall of Fame that explores the connections between classical and country music, Is It a Fiddle or a Violin? reached 1,000+ students. Free Day of Music, an annual event featuring more than 20 local artists, welcomed 11,100 people to the Schermerhorn for a full day and night of performances, all free of charge. Community Concerts brought the Nashville Symphony to outdoor locations across the mid-state area, from urban neighborhoods to outlying communities, reaching 8,600 participants. The Chamber Music Series featured small groups of Symphony musicians performing in an intimate setting, free of charge. Programs covered a wide range of repertoire, including music and stories of composers affected by the Holocaust. As part of its Family Series, the Nashville Symphony integrated support for children with sensory sensitivities. Each of the four concerts featured classical repertoire, along with flexible and accessible seating, closed captioning, quiet spaces and trained staff.
