Sound of Thunder Wind Ensemble
Wind Ensemble is the highest-level band in the program, requiring hard work and advanced levels of musicianship, discipline, and dedication. It is mandated that members of the top band lead by example and are role models to others. Musicians must audition in the Spring to be considered for Wind Ensemble, and because of delicate instrumentation, auditions can be very competitive.
This year’s Wind Ensemble (2023-2024) earned an overall “Superior” at the district level after performing the pieces “Pageantry March,” “Excerpts from “Appalachian Spring”,” and “The Hounds of Spring” and taking part in sight reading on 3/14. The Student Conductor also earned a “Superior” on stage! The Wind Ensemble will be advancing to perform at the State Level on April 30l!!!
