The McNeese Wind Symphony is the premiere performance organization of the McNeese Band Program, conducted by our Director of Bands, Dr. Tim Pardue. The ensemble fosters the highest performance standards while offering its members an opportunity to expand their technical, intellectual and musical horizons.
The Wind Symphony offers a creative and positive music-making environment dedicated to performing outstanding and challenging works of diverse musical styles while furthering wind music of artistic and historical significance. Members of the Wind Symphony have exceptional opportunities to work with some of the world's finest soloists, composers, and conductors throughout the year. In addition to its regular series of campus concerts, the ensemble tours and performs at both regional and national music conventions.
The Wind Symphony is open to all university students through audition. Auditions are held during the week before the fall semester starts. Prepared audition pieces for each instrument will be posted on the band website by July 15th.
