It was founded by Elana and Vincent Bolling and was a widely admired series that brought hundreds of exceptional musicians to Dayton. After 54 years at the DAI, the Vanguard Concerts series came to a close in 2016. Vanguard's tradition of excellence continues under the auspices of the University of Dayton's ArtsLIVE series, which has served the University's campus and community audiences with adventurous, professional arts events since 1961.
