Inspiring Excellence in Music and Community Engagement

The St. Lawrence University Wind Ensemble is dedicated to celebrating the artistry and tradition of wind band music. We are comprised of talented student musicians, faculty, alumni, and community members. We strive to create an environment where passion for music and the pursuit of excellence come together.
