PYSO Wind Ensemble

The PYSO Wind Ensemble is an intermediate to advanced winds ensemble for wind, brass, and percussion musicians that explores fun and challenging repertoire. This ensemble serves musicians by further developing their individual technical and ensemble skills that include scales, dynamics and articulation studies. Ensemble skills include matching intonation between sections and ensemble, blend and balance as it relates to wind ensemble repertoire.  Most students are in grades 6-9.

For specific pieces, the PYSO Wind Ensemble and String Orchestra will combine for rehearsal and performances, giving musicians the opportunity to perform within a full symphony setting.

The Wind Ensemble rehearses on Tuesday nights from 5:15pm-7:30pm at Pasadena High School unless otherwise noted.
