101st Season Fall Concert

3:30 pm
PVCC Dickinson Building

It’s Fall, so it’s time for The Charlottesville Band to return to PVCC’s Dickinson Theatre for its 101st Season Fall Concert.  Our afternoon show will feature selection of light classical, popular and jazz pieces, as well as Franz Doppler’s Andante and Rondo for Two Flutes, featuring guest soloists Angela Kelly and Christine Steele.

PVCC’s Dickinson Theater is one of Charlottesville’s finest acoustical settings, and one of the Band’s favorites.  Join us — and as always, admission is free!
