University Wind Ensemble

Fall 2013 Wind Ensemble Auditions - Auditions will be held Monday and Tuesday, August 19 and 20.  An audition sign-up sheet will be posted outside the UT Band Office, CPA 1020, beginning Wednesday, August 14.  Auditions will consist of the posted music (below), with possible scales and sight reading.  Please note the suggested tempos provided on the excerpts.  These are target tempos.  Do your best to work the music up to tempo, but better accuracy at a slower tempo is preferred to poor execution at the target tempo.  Contact Dr. Jason Stumbo if you have any questions.

The concert ensembles are a vibrant part of the Department of Music and the Band Program at UT. The Wind Ensemble and the Symphonic Band are open to all UT students and both perform several concerts throughout the year. Whether you want to be challenged as a player or just want to have fun playing music, we have an ensemble for you.

The University Wind Ensemble is comprised of some of the most talented wind players and percussionists on the UT campus, performing high-quality literature composed over the past 400 years. The ensemble performs up to three concerts each semester, both on and off campus. The Wind Ensemble is open to ALL university students through audition.
