Best guess at annual averages -
Classical: 10 to 20 ranging from solo instrument to symphony orchestra
Jazz: 6 +/-
Folk, Celtic, bluegrass: 3-4
Classic rock: 0-2
Broadway shows: 0-2
These totals are not completely by choice of preference. I refuse to attend any concert in large halls (4,000+), or stadiums. I focus on smaller venues where there is less likelihood for all amplified sound. That becomes more difficult as time goes by.

We live near the Eastman School, and the final exams/performances are free and open to the public. I have been telling myself I should go sometime. But never manage to find the time somehow....
:-( It's a bit like being thirsty living near a lake.

That is just stupid.

I live next to a university which has a music school which offers free recitals. However they tend to be modern, atonal compositions/performances which I don't care for so I skip those.
However we do have a number of chamber groups who perform at churches, libraries, schools, etc. and many of those are free or with a reasonable donation.
