Centennial / West End

Blair School of Music

Concert Hall · 2400 Blakemore Ave

Official site Directions

Vanderbilt's music school, running near-daily faculty concerts, student recitals, and jazz and global ensembles that are mostly free and open to anyone.

Blair programs more nights than most clubs in this city and almost none of it costs anything. The catch is that it runs on a school calendar, so the year has hard gaps around breaks and exams.

Concerts are spread across several halls on campus, and start times run from midday recitals to 7:30pm series concerts.
