NASHVILLE, Tenn.- Sounds of the Nashville Symphony filled the Schermerhorn Symphony Center Sunday night, and this concert had a specific mission.

The event, "Music With a Mission" helped raise money and awareness for the Nashville Rescue Mission. The show featured country music group "Restless Heart" and the Nashville Symphony, as well as guest performers like Amy Grant, Rickey Skaggs, and Tracey Lawrence. This is the second year for the event, which raised over $70,000 last year.

Before the show, guests also bid on a silent auction with items donated by several musicians like Jack White of "The White Stripes", rock duo "Foster the People", and country legend George Jones.
