Symphonic Band (formerly Campus Band)

more information

Symphonic Band is a large concert band which performs a variety of wind band literature and is geared toward musicians who desire a quality band experience, but have less time to commit. This ensemble is open to all interested students, staff, and faculty. Seating placement auditions required. You do not have to be a music major to participate! There is a great diversity of students in this ensemble, most of whom want to continue to play their instrument from high school or even learn a secondary instrument.

There are instruments available to rent from the School of Music for $20.00 per semester and are based on availability.

The Symphonic Band is scheduled in the Fall Semester on Tuesday evenings from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. and again in the Spring Semester on Wednesday evenings from 7:15 p.m. - 9:15 p.m. There are usually enough students to form one group in the fall and two groups for the spring. The course numbers to register for this class are MUS 200C for freshman and sophomores and MUS 400C for upper division students.
