A full-sized modern symphonic band of about eighty performers, this ensemble is composed of both graduate and undergraduate
musicians.
Repertoire is drawn from a variety of styles and musical periods, carefully chosen in order to stimulate a high
degree of musical growth for each member. Newly commissioned works are often performed alongside original and transcribed
music for band. While a high level of performance is demanded of every player, enrollment is open to all accomplished musicians
(music and non-music majors) depending upon space. Entrance and seating auditions take place at the beginning of each
semester.
Rehearsals: Tuesday and Thursday, 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.

The Department of Music offers its condolences to the family of Joseph R. Sugar on his passing. An esteemed member of our Music Education faculty and Adviser to the Department Chair for Music Education, for nearly 20 years he has had a deep and long lasting influence on our Department in so many ways. His absence will be profoundly felt by us all.
