Phenomenal. So pretty to my ears. If you want to actually feel something, this is the place to be. It encapsulates beauty, for your listening pleasure. I would recommend anyone who has a pulse to listen and watch the absolute purity and beauty of the symphony.
An exquisite evening of culture right in our own backyard! Go to the conductors discussion before the performance. It is the perfect orientation to the music you will hear during the evening, especially if you enjoy an occasional evening of classical music but arent an expert. So much talent! Highly recommended.
Such an asset to the community. So happy to have a symphony in Nashville. They are phenomenal.
Very nice building my grandfather is in the chorus and they are amazing when paired with the symphony
Exeptional! One of the best treasures in Nashville. Theres nothing like getting dressed up and experiencing the Symphony. It truly moves you, the passion and feeling behind every note makes me misty eyed every time Im honered to hear them play.
I just went and saw Star Wars: Return of the Jedi with the Nashville Symphony playing the soundtrack. It was great! Even though the orchestra was right in front of me, I would forget they were there. The music was perfectly in sync with the movie. It was a really cool experience!And a note on the Schermerhorn: it is an absolutely beautiful building!
This is one of the most beautiful venues in Nashville. Unfortunately, the two rock concerts I have seen here (Johnny Lang and the Hendrix Experience) both suffered the same problem: far too much volume. Now let it be known I am a rock guy. I like loud. But if it comes to the middle of the show and you can no longer make out nuances, it is too loud.The shame is, both concerts are the kind you would want to get nuances.Now the venue itself is lovely. For the first show we sat in the middle about 10 rows back. Very comfortable and the view was good.For the second, we were in one of the side box seats. While the experience was enjoyable of having your own private balcony, I did find the view a little challenging at times, and the sound was probably actually worse for this style of concert.I will make it a point to update this review if we are ever fortunate to attend a show more well suited for the venue (Orchestral or maybe Jazz).
First time ever being in this place and let me tell you, its a beautiful place. The people that work there are bery nice courteous and helpful. My daughters and I went to go see Foreigner perform with the Symphony and it was a great show. If you have never been there look for an excuse to go and take you family, you all will love it Im pretty sure.
This was the perfect venue. It was beautiful and the sound was perfect! I could only dream of performing there. There were nice people at every turn to guide us to our seats. The Getty concert was absolutely wonderful. We plan to return next year.Also, the parking was really close and protected. Great experience!
Not only is the symphony fantastic, but the Schermerhorn is one of the most exquisite venues anywhere!Parking is abundant at several neighboring lots. Some of Nashvilles finest restaurants are within walking distance. The view of the downtown skyline over the fountain is breathtaking.This is one of my favorite Nashville must do events.
Great views from so many angles, I just love going to concerts here! I cannot wait until they can open up again.
Beautiful! The venue felt a little bit like a Jane Austin era building with 1920s amazing lamps and velvety chairs. They were narrow on my well endowed hips, but many people left at intermission so there was plenty of room. We were on the back row of the highest balcony and it felt closer to the stage than the closest balcony at the Atlanta symphony. Each level had its own parlor for intermission with wine, water and soda available. I did not order any wine because it was 12 dollars for a glass. But my friend did and said the red was very good.
Not only was the building gorgeous both outside and inside. The chairs were great and comfortable with plenty of space between rows for long legs. The staff was super nice and helpful. From where are the restrooms? To help getting to our seats. Bartenders were polite and fast.I can not describe the skill of the orchestra in words better than Just go hear it for yourself.We will be going back.
We have been to the Schermerhorn/Nashville Symphony Center four times and I love the facility. It is beautiful and the acoustics are amazing. The staff is helpful...they sales staff helped me with a ticketing snafu last season and really jumped through hoops to make it right. The ushers are lovely. This past show I forgot my tickets on the kitchen table and the box office will call printed new ones with no hassle. The bartenders are quick at making drinks! We have tickets to three more shows this season and I am looking forward to all of them. Their schedule has amazing variety!
A beautiful, elegant venue set in the heart of Nashville, the Symphony center is a truly wonderful place to go to a concert in.Between the rich wood and stately stone pillars and walls is a beautiful concert hall. It is rectangular to accommodate balls, and the acoustics are great every time I have been. I have seen two concerts here, and both were phenomenal. There are two small bars outside of the entrances to the main room, and serve refreshments you can take in to the room. An amazing organ is located on the wall behind the performance stage, and chandeliers hang from the ceiling far above.I highly recommend this venue, and more importantly listening to the Nashville Symphony! A great group in a great venue right downtown.Note: the pictures below are simply whitebalanced differently. The actual color of the room is somewhere between, a warm white.
Only my second time to see a concert here and tonight was awesome! Not only is Michael W Smith great but when you are performing in such an awesome venue with an amazing symphony its even better!
Beautiful neoclassical architecture design with lots of natural lighting. A wonderful place to see and hear music from the classics to the movie Home Alone for Christmas. The volunteers are always very helpful.
Great first experience here seeing Foreigner play with the Symphony! There are truly no bad seats in the building. The sound was incredible. The staff was friendly and helpful. I definitely want to go back!
Participated in first annual Nashville Christmas Carol sing. Nashville string orchestra and a 600 voice choir worshipping the reason for the season. 5 p.m. presentation was sold out. 8 p.m. also well attended. Acoustics are incredible, seating is comfortable a very good venue to attend.
We love going to the Schermerhorn Symphony Center! They always have amazing events going on. When the symphony is playing, sitting behind the stage is my favorite. You can really see the musicians up close. But as you can see from the pictures, sitting in front of the stage gives you great views, too. The symphony is incredible, I highly recommend checking it out.
Excellent concert venue. Acoustics and fabulous.
Wonderful free chamber concerts you still need to get ticketsBut they celebrated Beethoven s 250 year last night. Wonderful music for all ages and we got such good seats.Arrive half hour early. That helps with seatsQuestion and answer session after they played two pieces by Beethoven and it only lasted an hour.Perfect date or family outing ideaCheck website for other performance s this yearBe sure to support the Nashville Symphony
I love love love the Nashville Symphony. There are NO bad seats, every presentation is spectacular!!
Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Parking was a little pricey but right across the street in the parking deck. The balcony seats were not bad at all. Plenty of room for a big man :)
Beautiful building, very comfortable to enjoy a good concert or play, the people are very friendly and will help you get to your seats, there is a full bar were you can buy drinks and snacks before and in the intermezo, the acoustic is awesome, what is expected in this places.There are no free parking, but right in the front you can find pay parking, a little expensive and you have to be sure where you park because there are 2 companies that operate in the same lot one with yellow lines another with white and you have to make sure to pay in the right machine or you will get a ticket. It happen to a lot of people including me the first time I park there.
Amazing to find such a fabulous symphony in Nashville. A must go for anyone living in Nashville or here for a visit.
Greeters are wonderful. Very pleasant and helpful. Great space. We sat in the very last row and still had a great view.
Well, the place is immaculate, we all know that. The staff is wonderful. // Tonight I had my first Messiah experience and it was divine. The orchestra and the choir precise almost to the point of robots. It was otherworldly. The soloists have a warm voice and they were seriously hand picked. I dont know how the director does it but everything was extremely studied, the volume, the softeness, the strength. I do believe his hands are anointed. The trumpet ... The violin.. I wish the Schermerhorn was my house!
Fantastic. Awesome. Wonderful. This was my second visit. Perfect listening no matter where you sit. We attended Handels Messiah. Beautiful!
Nashville symphony is a beautiful place! The not bad seat in the whole place. The the orchestra always does a wonderful job with the music and there was no difference tonight when they played with India Arie. India Arie have a spectacular performance and this my second time seeing her ️
I was there for the 2019 NFL draft. The experience was awesome. The Schermerhorn is a beautiful place with great site lines.
We went to see Jack Hannah Live, it was the first time we had been to the venue. Its a very pretty venue, and there were no bad seats as far as we could tell. I would definitely see more shows here!
Beautiful! New to the area and I love this symphony. Its gorgeous and classy. We will definitely be back for more shows soon!
Great acoustics. Smaller than expected, a great intimate venue. Not a bad seat in the house. Foreigner and the Nashville Symphony. Beautiful experience
Return of the Jedi in Concert was amazing. Getting to hear John Williams score live one was the best thing ever. I cant wait to go back!
Tonight was movie night. Beauty and the Beast. It was incredible. The live music was perfect.
Never disappoints. Beautiful interiors. Helpful ushers. And the symphony is such a treasure. They always perform beautifully.
What a great way to celebrate Beethovens birthday! And tonight we had birthday cake furnished by Cafe Intermezzo. Wonderful!
Such a beautiful place. Loved hearing the Orchestra play to the Nightmare Before Christmas. They were amazing. The place is super clean and staff was acomidating amd nice. Cant wait to go back some day.
Wonderful magical place. Saw Martina McBrides Christmas show. Wonderful acoustics!!!
Beautiful theatre! Went there for the third time this past Saturday, This timr we attended the Johnny Mathis concert with the Nashville Symphony. Great show and beautiful facility. The Staff that work there are so friendly and helpful! Thank you for an unforgettable evening!
I had an amazingly wonderful time tonight (11/14/2019). I attended India Aries concert.
Just a beautiful experience.
Omg Im always pleased when I visit this place. Everyone was so helpful and polite. When we needed directions to any area we were shown and treated with the best of service. Gr8 concert, great seat, and VIP service on parking. Have tickets for Oct for another visit. My number one place for any concert. Great hospitality on every angle.
Gorgeous shoebox concert hall setting. Comfortable chairs, great sound, and friendly staff. Will definitely be seeing another performance here.
Excellent performance. The best of Nashville classic music performances.
It was not what I was expecting but it was a blast! The band sounded amazing and they were really involved with the audience. I plan on going again!
Awesome. The symphony was excellent. That is a group of the most talented individuals that play together in harmony. If youve never experienced it, I would suggest you go.
It was a beautiful venue. The ORCHESTRA did a Phenomenal job. Patti Labelle was beautiful and the event was great. Would definitely visit again.
We attended the Drew & Ellie Holcomb Christmas show. Overall its a very nice venue and its easy to get to. The sound wasnt great where we sat (behind the stage), which was expected. The drinks are very expensive for the little cup they give you.
We love going to the Schermerhorn. The symphony is outstanding with a great lineup of pop concerts as well as the classical selections. Its a beautiful building and your reception is unfailingly friendly.
We had a great time at the Elvis Christmas concert at the Schermerhorn downtown Nashville. Thanks to our daughter Faith Groves. And before the show we enjoyed a wonderful dinner at PF Changs thanks to our son Caleb Jeffreys. What a wonderful anniversary, 48 years with my beautiful bride.
One of the best sounds Ive ever heard at a concert. We saw Foreigner with the Nashville Symphony and the concert and venue could not have been better. Our only complaint would be the seats. Very uncomfortable. My husband and I will be back to see Johnny Lang.
Celebrating MY 50th with by 2 favorite ppl and India Arie!!!
My wife and I enjoyed our time there and look forward to going back again soon.Thanks!
Wonder facility and amazing experience. Season ticket holders for several years, best ticket in town. Couldnt be happier with service and experience.
Beautiful venue! Every show Ive been to has been amazing. The staff is always helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant!
Great music and fun experience. Foreigner with the symphony was a great combination. The choir behind them was a nice touch.
Great performance in an amazing venue! Staff is just as wonderful! And not a bad seat in the venue!
Beautiful building. Beautiful performance. Comfortable waiting areas.
Incredible venue. A singular experience. Highly recommended
Was a great experience, beautiful place to have a weeding, excellent food, music, and great team behind to everything really success
Very nice concert hall. The sound was great as well as the lighting. I dont think theres a bad seat in the house. I really like the interior design as it is built like an old European concert hall. The staff was wonderful and friendly and everyone was very helpful.
Always an Amazing Experience when I go! This particular night I got to witness the work and hear from Annie Leibovitz!!
Amazing Hall. All the seats are great, but my favorite is front right for an orchestral performance where you can feel the bass players vibrate through the floor.
Great place love going here! But I would enjoy having more space and better seats.... seems cramped and dated.
Staff was helpful and the building beautiful. The seats not so comfortable though.
Blakeford Jazz Series, An Evening with Branford Marsalis Quartet. Awesome!!
Saw Foreigner with the symphony and choir. Great experience. The building is beautiful, and incredible acoustics.
Incredibly disappointed in the symphony. We bought tickets to the Patti Labelle concert which was absolutely awful and they knew it. Several people left with us 20 minutes in to her performing. When I called they said they knew there was a problem and that they would give us bonus tickets. That sounded good until we looked at the list. It was subpar at best and not even close to what we paid or the talent we were expecting. We are very disappointed to say the least. We have to many venues to go to concerts here in Nashville so we will not be back.
Beautiful place amazing people, the hard work of many result on this great place that make feel like youre home! Great job keep it up!
Great acoustics and beautiful venue. Very nice and accomodating staff. Love performing here
Great venue for concerts. Padded upholstered seats. Very clean upscale place.
Beautiful ball. Rachmaninoff and John Williams with stellar
Great story telling, made the book come alive. Symphony was fantastic
Every time Ive been there it is always a wonderful experience. If you ever come to Nashville, TN this is just one of many must to go. Even just to look inside.
We absolutely LOVE Nashville Symphony! Schermerhorn Center is simply magical place.
I looooooooove this place. There is not any other way to express how I feel about this place and their events.
Always wonderful, the music is incredible and there isn’t a bad seat in the house. They do a great job of making it a special event
The 2 hours about the life and music of the husband and wife team of Felice and Baudreaux BryantWent by like 15 minutes.Del and Carolyn BryantSparkledlike the magical music of the BryantsL.Russell Brown
Gorgeous concert hall in downtown Nashville. Excellent symphony orchestra. Diverse programming. Terrific!
The Polish symphony was fantastica. So talented and 3 encores! Joyfully talented
Always a wonderful time! No matter the artist(s) or the type of music. The atmosphere and acoustics are excellent. The Nashville Symphony is always worth supporting as well.
This place is spectacular. Not a bad seat in the house. Everyone was super nice and helpful.
Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful experience everytime I have gone! My friend Benjamin Butterfield performed there and I look forward to going back this April for another performance! Well done!
One of the most beautiful and acoustically perfect concert hills in the United States. Gorgeous architecture crowns the warm and crisp acoustics. It really makes everything played by the orchestra sound spectacular.The city must feel quite proud of this venue. Its neoclassical concept contrasts with the many modern buildings around downtown, adding a nice touch to the atmosphere. There are several hotels within walking distance, whichs makes the Symphony a desirable get away destination for a weekend.
Great music from great musicians! The conductor does a pretty good job too.
Schermerhorn ...mm, music to my ears. Its become a tradition to get movie night tickets every winter holiday season. This year: Home Alone 12/12. If youre a tourist visiting, definitely get yourself a seat before leaving the Music City. Such a beautiful and memorable venue!
The symphony sounded amazing. Definitely a treat to watch them play.
Good performance, but really weird vibes. Very boxy and the sound is a bit off. But not bad for a second-tier. City
Oh my I had one the best time in my life the Nashville Symphony box seats were the best and I do mean best. Such a nice luxurious area the place was just five star all the way around. I truly enjoyedThe event of a Kirk Franklin gospel was there and I had the time of my life.
What a wonderful experience! If you havent been to the symphony, you need to go! It was delightful. Plenty of people to help you find your seats, bar, drinks, some snacks, anything you would want. Clean restrooms are also a great plus. Wear whatever you want to. I saw people in fancy dresses and people in jeans. All are welcome. Make sure to bring $40 to park though.
A beautiful place with the best staff around. A wonderful experience.
Listening to the Nashville Symphony Orchestra, watching Start Wars, A New Hope, enjoying family...This was the perfect venue for us to see this collaboration. What a stunning, memorable time we had!! The Symphony is just spectacular, and of course the movie a classic!
Omg if you havent been yet you need to go. Just left Beauty and the Beast. I never been to anything like this. It was simply beautiful. Its not mandatory formal attire. There was people dressed up and others comfortable. It is very clean and well taken care of. The staff is very helpful navigating where you need to go
