A $10 Million Lifeline for the Nashville Symphony
The investment will help the orchestra address its immediate financial needs while it restructures. It lets the Symphony reinstate its 2026-27 season and bring back its full-time staff and all orchestra members, who were to be furloughed on Oct. 18 due to a financial emergency. Musicians and staff will return to the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell welcomed Oracle as a new corporate partner in the city’s arts philanthropy. The Symphony’s president and CEO, Mark Tillinger, called the commitment “a lifeline” for the organization.
“We are part of this community and understand how important cultural institutions like this are to the residents of Nashville,” said Clay Magouyrk, CEO of Oracle. “As Oracle builds its new headquarters on Nashville’s East Bank, we are here to help solve the community’s problems and ensure Nashville remains a vibrant place to live and work for generations to come.”
