Overview

Under the Table and Screaming is a multi-volume series exploring the history and legacy of the local music scene in Charlottesville, VA. From literally underground shows in DIY basements to the racially suppressed hip-hop scene to thriving roots music on woodsy back porches to elegant recitals in restored theaters, UTTaS presents a full and diverse picture of this incredibly musical city, still largely known nationally as the home of Dave Matthews In volume three, local journalist and radio DJ Erin O'Hare focuses on the University of Virginia's Old Cabell Hall and Charlottesville's Paramount Theater. These two venues have served for decades as a premier home for many local music scenes, especially the classical, jazz, and experimental crowds. They've brought together the world-class and the local alike for both singular, memorable shows and cozy annual traditions. Much beloved, both storied venues look to remain hubs for Charlottesville's music and arts community for years to come. Recommended for those who like swimming in the reverberations of a gilded mid-century theater, learning a century's worth of music history all in one auditorium, or experimental music through speaker arrays on the same stage as a symphony.
