University of Texas Wind Ensemble

The University of Texas Wind Ensemble has firmly established itself as one of America’s elite wind bands.

Active in the area of commissioning new music since 1988, the group has offered world premiere performances of works by many composers including John Corigliano, Michael Daugherty, Donald Grantham, David Maslanka, John Mackey and Dan Welcher.

One of the guiding principles of the ensemble is contact with the leading musical minds of the twentieth and twenty-­first centuries.
