This is the premier academy for the performing arts in the Flanaess. It isn't just for musicians; it trains historians (who memorize lore through song), diplomats, and master orators. The building contains a world-class concert hall, dozens of soundproofed practice 'cells', and a specialized library of musical scores and epic poetry. The Bardschool is a striking building of pale marble and polished cedar, designed with perfect acoustics in mind. Its high, arched windows are often open, allowing the sounds of harps, lutes, and soaring vocals to drift out into the surrounding streets.
