Course description
University Band- The University Band is comprised of woodwind, brass, and percussion musicians in disciplines across the university. This ensemble studies and prepares standard and contemporary wind band repertoire and performs four concerts each year. Please consult with the Ensemble Library in Ferguson Hall for more details on the rehearsal and performance schedule. Placement in the ensemble is determined through an audition; all university students are eligible to audition.
The Gold/Maroon/North Star Campus Bands- The Gold/Maroon/North Star Campus Bands comprise woodwind, brass, and percussion musicians from all disciplines across the university. Consisting primarily of non-music majors, this ensemble is intended as a way for students outside the School of Music to continue performing in college. Music majors are also encouraged to perform in this ensemble on a secondary instrument. This ensemble studies and prepares standard and contemporary wind band repertoire and performs two concerts per semester. No audition is required to join the Gold Campus Band, though basic proficiency on a traditional band instrument and fluency in reading notated music is a requirement
