Who Are We?
|
|
The
Prevailing Winds Symphonic Band is comprised of performers
from throughout the Shreveport/Bossier City area.
This
unique organization is composed of professional and
non-professional musicians who volunteer their time
and talent simply to the enjoyment of music. The group
is supported by grants from various local, state,
and national arts organizations, and by private donations.
The ensemble provides life-long musicians the opportunity
to continue their involvement in the performing arts
and furthers aesthetic development, increased intellectual
understanding of music and performance, and spirituality
in making music. 'Membership is open to adults and
high school students who play an instrument suitable
for a concert band. No auditions are required. The
band offers free public concerts throughout the year.
The repertoire includes concert band music, military
marches, operatic and orchestral transcriptions, Broadway
melodies, jazz, and popular and rock tunes.
