The El Paso Wind Symphony is a concert band that was organized by Dr. Ron Hufstader and a small group of El Paso area band directors in the spring of 1995.  The band consists of greater El Paso residents, most of who are band directors in public and private schools.  The mission of the group is to provide a role model for middle school, high school, and college band programs; to provide educational opportunities for all music students; and to present concerts of quality wind literature to the public on a professional level.

 

The Wind Symphony consists of approximately 45 players. This includes woodwind, brass, and percussion--the normal instrumentation for a concert band or wind ensemble. A 15-20 member Board of Directors is diligently working to find funding for the organization and to offer guidance for the group. This board is comprised of volunteers from the business and education fields who are donating their time and effort to help ensure the success of the Wind Symphony.

 

The basic season for the El Paso Wind Symphony consists of 5 concerts. These performances include a Holiday concert and several "theme" concerts.  The Region XXII All State Players (high school musicians) are always invited to perform with the Wind Symphony for the March concert.

 

In addition to the concert presentations, the Wind Symphony hosts an All-Region clinic for middle school and high school band students. Wind Symphony members serve as clinicians for this event. It is through activities such as these that the Wind Symphony is realizing the goals of the organization.

 

Our Approach to Corporate Giving is annual.  All sponsorships are designated into one of four categories. Many studies show that the effects of sponsorship are overwhelmingly positive.  Patrons report they are more likely to buy or use a sponsor’s product or service in the future and overall public opinion of the company is raised.
