  • “Musica is a magnificent sculpture that celebrates not only music, but also our creative class, honoring the creative talents who call Nashville home. It is a very important statement and is now in the heart of our expanding City. Alan LeQuire captured our musical roots and the creative spirit which has shaped the identity of Nashville. All we need now is to add the fountains!”

    Ron Samuels, Retired Vice Chairman, Pinnacle Financial Partners; Co-Founder Avenue Bank

  • "The Tennessee Latin American Chamber of Commerce (TLACC) and the Tennessee Latin American Foundation (TLAF) proudly support the Fountains of Musica Foundation because we believe in the transformative power of art and culture to unite communities and celebrate diversity. As organizations dedicated to empowering and uplifting Latin American voices, we recognize the Fountains of Musica as a visionary project that creates a shared space for all cultures to be seen, heard, and honored. Its presence in our city reflects the values we stand for—community inclusion, creative expression, and civic pride—and we are committed to supporting efforts that foster deeper cultural understanding and inspire connection through public art. "

    Delfine Fox, President, TLACC

    Steven Tyler
