The Los Osos Wind Symphony


The Wind Symphony is an outstanding auditioned ensemble which rehearses and performs during the spring semester (December – May). Members of the Wind Symphony are highly select and versatile musicians who are challenged to create music at the highest artistic level.  The Wind Symphony performs superb band literature suited to the group’s high level of ability and select instrumentation.  Recent performances have included “superior” ratings at music festivals throughout Southern California, and top honors, including the “Adjudicator’s Award” at the 2004 and 2007 San Francisco Heritage Festivals.  The highlight of the 2008 season was a Armed Forces Day patriotic performance on the flight deck of the USS Midway, in San Diego, CA.
