    SunTrust Classical Series presents Rachmaninoff & Stravinsky featuring Nashville Symphony, Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor, Nashville Symphony Chorus, George Mabry, chorus director, Twyla Robinson, soprano, Bryan Griffin, tenor, and Darren K. Stokes, bass-baritone.

    Stravinsky: Symphony of Psalms Lowell Liebermann: New Work Rachmaninoff: The Bells, Op. 35.

    Edgar Allan Poe’s resonant poem served as inspiration for Rachmaninoff’s choral symphony The Bells, which would prove to be one of the composer’s own favorite works. The iconoclastic modern Russian master Stravinsky looked to the Old Testament for his Symphony of Psalms, creating a wholly original work of liturgical music — notable for its unique scoring and its intensity of feeling. Both of these dynamic works will feature the stirring voices of the Nashville Symphony Chorus, joined by soloists Twyla Robinson, Bryan Griffin and Darren K. Stokes. One of America’s most frequently performed composers, Lowell Liebermann will unveil a new work that reveals his simultaneous embrace of tradition and innovation.
