If you've had all the honky tonkin' you can handle on Broadway, a change of pace is just a few blocks away. Nashville might be famous around the world for its country music, but the Schermerhorn Symphony Center provides a world-class facility for classical music. Its timeless design is influenced by many of Europe's finest concert halls, including the custom-built 3,600-pipe concert organ, but it's the high-tech attention to the acoustical details that allows for an unparalleled musical atmosphere. The Schermerhorn is home sweet home for the Grammy® Award-winning Nashville Symphony, so there's a great chance to catch a concert all year round.

Sightseeing
You're only cheating yourself if a trip to Nashville doesn't include a sampling of the live sounds that help give Music City its name. The joints down on Lower Broadway are always jumping. In fact, most bands count off their first song as early as 10 a.m. Locals tend to favor Robert's Western World, where you can order a cold PBR or buy a pair of boots while listening to a live jukebox of country classics. For music history buffs, Tootsie's World Famous Orchid Lounge is a must. Little has changed in this dive bar since it regularly served Patsy Cline, Kris Kristofferson and Roger Miller.

There's a saying in Music City: "It All Begins With A Song." The Bluebird Café is where many of those hit songs are born. Nestled inside a shopping center in Nashville's Green Hills commercial district, the intimate, 100-seat venue is a place where veteran and up-and-coming songwriters test new material on a live audience.
There are typically two shows a night, with a cover-free show starting around 6 p.m. Writers with a few (or a few dozen) cuts under the belt usually take the stage after 9 p.m. It's an atmosphere that honors the songwriter and songs, so be sure to save your hootin' and hollerin' for the honky tonks or you may hear "Shhh!" from the staff.

Without question the first item on any visitor's to-do list in Nashville is a trip to the building that is home to more country music treasures than anywhere else on the planet. The $37 million landmark takes up an entire city block. The main exhibit inside, Sing Me Back Home: A Journey Through Country Music, is state-of-the-art interactive tour that features artifacts from country's past (Bill Monroe's 1923 Gibson F-5 mandoin), present (Keith Urban's and Brad Paisley's guitars) and future (a Taylor Swift mini-exhibit on using social media to communicate with fans).

Home of the Grand Ole Opry from 1943 until 1974, an eye-popping list of country legends have performed on this legendary stage. Unbelievably, this Nashville landmark stood mostly vacant before being restored in 1994. Now the outstanding acoustics draw a wide variety of acts, ranging from Aretha Franklin to Yo-Yo Ma. Originally built as a house of worship, the building earned the nickname "The Mother Church of Country Music" and audiences today continue to enjoy a wide variety of acts while seated in pews.
Fans can have their photo taken on the historic stage, cut a CD in the Ryman studio, or take a guided Backstage Tour through dressing rooms once used by Hank Williams and Minnie Pearl year

Inside the simple, one-story building on Music Row is the room that launched a thousand hits. Built with the help of Chet Atkins and now a part of the Country Music Hall of Fame, a visit offers a rare glimpse behind the scenes at one of the key contributors to the legendary Nashville Sound. Elvis Presley mastered over two hundred records at the facility, and country royalty ranging from Eddy Arnold to Waylon Jennings to Dolly Parton have all used the studio to record.
