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.
