Calling all music and cocktail connoisseurs! Mark your calendars for the Nashville Symphony’s fifth annual Spirits of Summer, a unique fusion of live music and craft cocktail competition. On Tuesday, June 27, Schermerhorn Symphony Center will come alive with a curated concert, where music meets mixology, all in support of the Nashville Symphony.
Presented by Crescendo Club, the Symphony’s young professional organization, this fundraising event pairs the Symphony’s musical prowess with the creative cocktail stylings of Nashville’s most notable mixologists.
This year’s “Symphony Royale” theme invites VIP guests to start the evening in a High Rollers Lounge, featuring gaming tables, an open bar, passed hors d’oeuvres, and champagne. The main event, led by Principal Pops Conductor Enrico Lopez-Yañez, will showcase four musical selections, each paired with a bespoke cocktail inspired by the music.
Experience a multisensory journey as you savor each cocktail while soaking in the corresponding musical piece. Vote for your favorite music and cocktail pairing at the end of the night, with the winning mixologist receiving the Symphony’s Spirits of Summer award and a Nashville Symphony prize package.
Join the event’s chairs, Catherine Grace (Associate Board, Spirits of Summer Chair) and Hank Ingram (Board of Directors, Secretary; Associate Board, Chair Emeritus) in celebrating this one-of-a-kind event that blends the artistry of the Symphony with Nashville’s vibrant craft cocktail scene.
Tickets for Spirits of Summer go on sale May 2, starting at $75. Proceeds will benefit the Nashville Symphony’s mission to inspire and engage the community through extraordinary live orchestral music experiences.
