Since 2003, nine bronze, nude, dancing figures have graced the roundabout on Music Row. The sculpture, created by artist Alan LeQuire, pays homage to the lifeblood of Nashville, music, through dance. The sculpture has been controversial as some were less-than-thrilled that the 15-foot dancers were nude, while others thought that a sculpture that is the focal point of Music Row should have more to do with country music than with frolicking Greeks.
I should point out, however, that while most people know Nashville for its country music roots, the other genres are big here, too. Nashville is second only to Los Angeles in the number of recordings made annually.
By the way, this is not my favorite photo, but since we were driving by it Sunday, I thought I would share Musica with you today. Note that I didn't give you full frontal views, either! :-)
