Step into a world of music and art in East Tennessee
This is your year. The one where you turn a new page, broaden your horizons, and dive in to all things art that East Tennessee has to offer—and there is plenty to choose from! Last issue, we took a walk through regional art galleries. This issue we venture into a more classic performance space, one where operas are plentiful, ballet is queen, and orchestras ring vibrantly in beautifully constructed concert halls. Which event will you attend?
