Two sweeping, biblically inspired works unite under the baton of GRAMMY-winning conductor Robert Spano. Bernstein's "Jeremiah" Symphony gives voice to the lament of the prophet Jeremiah, mourning a fallen Jerusalem, with mezzo soprano Kelley O'Connor's stirring vocals bringing ancient grief to life. Then, witness the power of The Sacrifice of Isaac, a monumental new oratorio by Jonathan Leshnoff co-commissioned by your Nashville Symphony. Be part of history with a live recording of Leshnoff's The Sacrifice of Isaac, featuring full chorus and an all-star lineup of vocalists.
