New Orleans Classical In Nashville

“Just as most people wouldn’t think of a major symphony orchestra first (or even second) when thinking of Nashville, so too New Orleans brings up images of Louis Armstrong, Fats Domino and the Marsalis brothers–not Rossini, Saint-Saëns and Shostakovich. Still, that’s something of a tourist’s view of the Crescent City, as New Orleans–both past and present–has a rich tradition of European art music too.”
