    The fifth season of the Centennial Park Conservancy’s ECHO Chamber Music Series is
    underway, and highlights of the season will be two special upcoming performances
    taking place at the Parthenon. The ECHO Series was created to feature composers and
    contemporary ensembles performing chamber and choral music selected or arranged
    for the unique reverb of the Parthenon Naos and performed in front of the 42-foot statue of Athena. The 2025 lineup includes the return of Lockeland Strings and the series debut of SistaStrings and the Fisk Jubilee Singers.

    SistaStrings, who will perform on Sunday, January 26th, are a dynamic musical duo
    comprised of sisters Chauntee and Monique Ross. With their unique blend of classical
    training, soulful melodies, and contemporary sounds, SistaStrings have established
    themselves as a formidable force within the music community. The duo was just voted
    “best instrumentalist” for the Americana Music Association’s 2023 honors. Their
    remarkable journey of fusing their classical training with their deep-rooted love for R&B, hip-hop, and gospel has led them to perform artists such as Joni Mitchell, Ed Sheeran, Maggie Rogers, Margo Price, Allison Russell, and Jason Isbell, as well as being
    members of Brandi Carlile’s touring band. 
     
    On Sunday, March 30th, the ECHO season concludes with a special debut performance
    from the Fisk Jubilee Singers. Nashville’s global ambassadors since 1871, this a
    cappella ensemble from Fisk University perform Negro spirituals originally sung by
    slaves prior to the Civil War.

    The original Fisk Jubilee Singers introduced ‘slave songs’ to the world in 1871 and were instrumental in preserving this unique American musical tradition known today as Negro spirituals. Their stirring performances share this rich culture globally and ensure the genre remains a vibrant musical tradition today.
     
    General admission tickets for each concert are $25. Patron tickets are available for $58
    each and include two complimentary beverages and reserved seating. Tickets can be
