Fun Facts

The building is equipped with a special foundation system that allows it to withstand earthquakes and other natural disasters, ensuring the safety of its visitors and performers.

The center is designed in a neo-Classical style, reminiscent of European concert halls, and features a timeless elegance with its limestone facade and grand columns.

The Martin Foundation Concert Organ, with its 3,568 pipes, is a centerpiece of the concert hall and was custom-built by Schoenstein & Co., a renowned organ builder.

The concert hall is designed with adjustable acoustics to accommodate a wide range of musical performances, from symphonies to solo recitals.

The center is named in honor of Kenneth Schermerhorn, who served as the music director of the Nashville Symphony for 22 years, leaving a lasting legacy on the city's cultural scene.

The building features a garden courtyard that provides a serene outdoor space for visitors to enjoy before or after performances.
