Great Gershwin! Tickets

Great Gershwin! blends the iconic American songbook of George Gershwin with a contemporary sensibility. Conducted by Byron Stripling, with Tony DeSare at the piano and vocal mic, alongside the Nashville Symphony, the program explores Gershwin standards such as The Man I Love and Summertime, while weaving pieces tied to the Rhapsody in Blue centennial into a cohesive concert narrative. This collaboration celebrates both the enduring melodies and the improvisational spirit that defined the Gershwin era, presented in a venue renowned for its acoustics and audience engagement.

Tony DeSare’s vocal storytelling and keyboard mastery bring warmth and nuance to each tune, while Byron Stripling’s trumpet lines illuminate the orchestral textures, creating a bridge between jazz idioms and classical orchestration. The Nashville Symphony’s dynamic ensemble rounds out the sound with precision and depth, making this a must-see event for fans of American roots music and sophisticated concert programming.
