The New Haven Symphony Orchestra the fourth oldest symphony orchestra in America, and the Yale School of Music, one of the world's most prestigious schools of music, is at the center of a beehive of musical activity at the University. Rounding out the city's musical offerings are numerous other jazz, folk, classical and rock concerts at various venues including the legendary Toad's Place - "where the legends play".
