For Donors of $75+: Access to Curb Open Dress Rehearsals
We invite both student groups and donors to be a part of the Nashville Symphony’s final rehearsal before each Classical Series weekend’s opening night! You can expect this to be a working rehearsal lasting approximately 2.5 hours long. The orchestra, guest artists, and conductor will be casually dressed as they fine-tune their performances.
All donors of this level are invited to attend one dress rehearsal a season. Those who give donations at a value of $500 invited to two dress rehearsals a season, and those who give $1,000 or more have access to all Open Dress Rehearsals.
IMPORTANT: The first half of dress rehearsals typically last from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM, at which time there is a break. Guests may not leave the hall in the middle of a working rehearsal, but are welcome to leave at the break. To learn about rehearsal etiquette and expectations, click here.
