Nashville Ballet Concludes 2021-2022 Season at Belmont’s Fisher Center for the Performing Arts

Nashville Ballet is set to conclude its 2021-22 season at Belmont University’s brand-new Fisher Center for the Performing Arts June 4 and 5. A state-of-the-art facility built specifically to showcase the abundance of talent native to Nashville, the Company’s performance will be a part of the world-class venue’s inaugural season.

Built prestigiously for large-scale events and performances, the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts includes state-of-the-art music and lighting technology, over 1,700 seats, optimal acoustic capabilities, and free parking.

“Both Nashville Ballet and Belmont University have the unique advantage of being surrounded by such an incredibly robust arts scene, and we have a long history of working together to offer artists the space they need to thrive,” shared Nashville Ballet Artistic Director Paul Vasterling. “For our company artists to have the opportunity to perform in a performing arts venue of this caliber right in our own city is unprecedented, and we are so honored to be continuing our long-valued partnership with Belmont by being a part of the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts’ inaugural season.”

Nashville Ballet at Belmont will feature a diverse repertoire of works by distinguished choreographers set to iconic classical scores. Nashville Ballet company dancers will reprise award-winning choreographer Val Caniparoli’s fan-favorite Tutto Eccetto il Lavandino (everything but the kitchen sink) featuring the music of Antonio Vivaldi. Joining Caniparoli’s piece will be Associate Artistic Director Nick Mullikin’s newest work, 2,192 Days, performed to live music by Sergei Rachmaninov. Audiences will also experience an exclusive preview of a new commission from Matthew Neenan, sought-after choreographer and co-founder of BalletX. Following his popular creation at Attitude: Other Voices in 2019, Neenan will be returning to Nashville to display a brand-new piece that will premiere in full during Nashville Ballet’s 2022-23 season.
