First Grand Ole Opry Broadcast : Anniversary, 1927

December 10th, 2020

Company: Grand Ole Opry
Web site: http://www.opry.com

The phrase "Grand Ole Opry" was first uttered on the air on December 10, 1927. At the time, Barn Dance followed the NBC Red Network's Music Appreciation Hour, a program of classical music and selections from grand opera presented by classical conductor Walter Damrosch. Along the way, The Opry has launched countless country music careers and led the way for Nashville to become Music City.
