Welcome!
The Symphonic Wind Ensemble is the premier wind band at Virginia Tech.
Repertory ranges from masterworks for concert band and wind ensemble
to contemporary pieces by some of the most exciting composers writing
for the medium today. The ensemble presents at least two concerts on
campus each semester and occasionally performs across the state and region
on tour or
at music conferences. Outstanding musicians from all classes and
academic departments are welcome to participate in the ensemble!
Audition materials and excerpts are now posted online!
Audition information for the Winter 2010 semester will be posted here and outside
242-P Squires by the end of Thanksgiving break. Auditions last between five and ten
minutes and include approximately two minutes of prepared solo or etude material that
demonstrates technical and musical abilities, pre-assigned excerpts from
the ensemble repertory, scales, and sight reading. Please e-mail
tjcross@vt.edu if you have any audition-related questions!
