"Fun Tunes, Fun Times" Concert on the Common

The Chelmsford Community Band continues its decades-long tradition of providing free outdoor music on the Common August 4th with a concert celebrating the awesome and absurd music of cartoons. Featuring familiar themes like the Simpsons opening music and Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries” (a.k.a. “Kill the Wabbit”), this concert will explore the intertwining of musical themes and humor. Spread your blanket on the grass or bring your lawn chairs to enjoy the music with the whole family; the program will start at 7pm. Check the Band’s Facebook page for updates in the case of bad weather.

Founded in 1972, the Chelmsford Community Concert Band is a 60-piece ensemble of volunteers under the direction of Lucinda Ellert. It celebrates its rich tradition of providing live music performances in this area every summer with a free concert series on Tuesday evenings.
