In Which Nathan and Victoria Journey to the Ryman
A few mornings back at approximately 6:30, I ran through downtown Nashville by the Ryman Auditorium with a group of ROTC cadets during our Wednesday PT session. While the cold and the straight-line distance from my location to my bed would normally dishearten me, this was a notable exception. Why, Nathan? you ask, ignoring the...Posted by Nathan Hall on January 25, 2013 in College Life, General Information, Music, Nashville, Concerts, downtown, Keane, Music, Nashville, Piano, ryman
Blair’s Concerto Competition
In mid-January, the Blair School of Music hosts its annual Concerto Competition. The stakes? Endless practicing. The prize? A chance to solo with the Vanderbilt Orchestra.Posted by Shing Ann Yeh on January 24, 2013 in Academics, Blair School of Music, College Life, Music, Nashville, Blair School of Music, Concerto Competition, Music, Orchestra, Practice
Ed Sheeran Part 2
Last night, I saw Ed Sheeran in concert…again. I saw him last semester in London, and he was so good that I had to see him again at the Ryman.Posted by Eileen Robinson on January 23, 2013 in General Information, Music, Nashville, ed sheeran, fido, Music, Nashville, off campus, ryman, Student Life
Is that who I think it is?
The beauty of being in a city like Nashville is that you never know who you’ll run into when you’re least expecting it. Friday night, four of my friends and I went out into the city to go dancing and ran into someone unexpected...Posted by Cassandra Mychalowycz on January 20, 2013 in College Life, General Information, Music, Nashville, dance, Honky-Tonk, Justin Bieber, McFadden's, Nashville, Victory
If I were rushing a sorority this semester, I would have had so much to talk about during rush past the programmed greetings. And that's just one of the perks of travelling internationally over winter break.Posted by Shing Ann Yeh on January 9, 2013 in Art, Blair School of Music, College Life, General Information, Music, Study Abroad, Winter Break, blair, China, china tour, Concerts, food, traveling, vanderbilt orchestra, weather, winter break
On Saturday, they gave us a pre-tour lecture on tips and tricks for China. You probably already know that the water isn't of the greatest quality there, but thinking past that a bit, salads probably are not the healthiest, in terms of being germ-free, option of foods. BYOTP: Bring your own toilet paper. Cars sometimes drive on the sidewalks. When bargaining, aim for a tenth of the price. They also included a handy list of Chinese words to know, such as numbers and common sayings.Posted by Shing Ann Yeh on December 24, 2012 in Blair School of Music, College Life, General Information, Music, Winter Break, blair, China, Music, viola jokes
Well, let's just dive in, shall we? As I was mentioning in my last post, the Vanderbilt Orchestra is going to be going on tour to China! We've known about this trip since the summer of 2011, so with the approach of our departure in under a week, I am more excited than for the imminent approach of a musical adventure in a land far, far away!Posted by Shing Ann Yeh on December 18, 2012 in Blair School of Music, Music, Winter Break, blair, China, christmas, concert, Orchestra, winter break
Hello one, hello all! It has been a long time since I've posted. Not that I haven't been blogging... it was just a matter of actually publishing my drafts. Ah, well, now that this semester's over and I'm still at Vanderbilt, let me fill you in on a few things and explain why I'm still in warm-weather Nashville.Posted by Shing Ann Yeh on December 18, 2012 in Blair School of Music, Food, General Information, Housing, Music, Nashville, Studying, Winter Break, weather, birthday, blair, China, finals, Mayfield, Orchestra, studying
Imma miss you, Vandy.
Well folks, I survived the semester. After a stressful morning of last minute packing, goodbyes, and two plane rides, I am finally made it home. As I am sure all of you are well aware of, I am studying abroad next semester at the University of Edinburgh in Edinburgh, Scotland.

WO Smith Music School
One of the things that I wanted to keep up in college was playing the flute. I considered joining an orchestra or band for credit, but it was too big of a time commitment for me. However, I wanted to keep playing the flute as it had been such a big part of my life for over 10 years. That was when I heard about the WO Smith Music School.Posted by Julianne Connors on December 14, 2012 in General Information, Music, Nashville, blair, flute, music lessons, wo smith, wo smith music school
