"The Nashville Symphony has had a bruising year, having narrowly avoided foreclosure on its concert hall, the Schermerhorn Symphony Center, in June, and having reached a contract with its musicians in which they agreed to a one-year contract that included a painful 15-percent salary cut.

But the orchestra had more cheerful news on Friday: the country singer Taylor Swift, as a way of celebrating her 24th birthday, donated $100,000 to the orchestra.

 

Ms. Swift and the orchestra are not strangers: though she has not performed with the ensemble, she was the recipient of its annual Harmony Award in 2011, and has performed at the Schermerhorn. A resident of Nashville since she was 14, Ms. Swift also pledged $4 million to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2012, and 14,000 children’s books to the Nashville Public Library the same year.

 

David Pomeroy, the president of Local 257 of the American Federation of Musicians, of which Ms. Swift and the orchestra’s musicians are members, arranged the meeting between Ms. Swift’s representatives and the orchestra’s management, at which the gift was conveyed. In a statement, Mr. Pomeroy suggested that if other donors followed suit, the orchestra’s salary cut could be reversed in contract negotiations later this year.

 

“Taylor Swift has set a great example,†Mr. Pomeroy said, “and I hope that others will follow her lead and help ensure that the Nashville Symphony musicians’ salaries can be restored as soon as possible.â€

Kudos to Taylor Swift for helping out a symphony orchestra; they really need it in times like this.
