管乐团的理念

Simply put, a wind orchestra is a group of musicians playing wind and 打击乐器 instruments. However, the wind orchestra includes only the composer’s specified instrumentation. Moreover, the wind orchestra layers the timbres of each instrument, rather than mixing them. Finally, the wind orchestra places optimal value on the expressive contribution of each member. The primary advantage of a wind orchestra is that it can change timbre based on the style of composition. 奖学金 to play in the 风乐团 are available for both music majors and non-majors. Our 风乐团 rehearsals are 75 minutes, meeting three times each week.
