Crowning achievement: The Charlottesville Band kicks off its centennial celebration with a summer concert series. Originally formed by a group of enthusiastic amateur musicians, the ensemble (formerly The Municipal Band of Charlottesville) has spent the last 100 years sharing free music with the community. From classical and jazz to Broadway tunes and rap, the band’s talents are fit for a queen—in 1976, it entertained during Queen Elizabeth II’s visit to Charlottesville.
Tuesday 6/7. Free, 7:30pm. Claudius Crozet Park, 1075 Claudius Crozet Park, Crozet. cvilleband.org
