Wind Ensemble

School Grades 9-12

Led by conductor Jon Eising and supported by top sectional coaches, the PVYO Wind Ensemble offers high school wind, brass, and percussion musicians a dynamic and enriching performance experience.

This advanced ensemble draws talented students from schools across Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC. Rehearsals culminate in a performance at the renowned Music Center at Strathmore — a highlight of the season.
The Wind Ensemble is an excellent complement to district, regional, or All-State bands. Students may audition with the same materials used for those programs or select an appropriate solo as outlined in the audition requirements.

Following the first concert, the ensemble takes a winter break to allow members to participate in county or state honor groups. Rehearsals resume in February for an exciting spring semester of music-making.
The PVYO Wind Ensemble is the perfect opportunity for advanced musicians to challenge themselves, collaborate with peers, and grow in a supportive and inspiring environment.
