Our Wind Ensemble, Chamber Orchestra, and Symphony Orchestra have enjoyed successful festival performances four times at Carnegie Hall in New York, Chicago's Symphony Center, and Renee and Henry Segerstrom Hall, among others, and have performed in England, Austria, and Switzerland.
Our Marching Band, Jazz Ensemble, Colorguard, and Drumline have all earned top awards at festivals, including circuit championships for Drumline and Colorguard.
Our Musical Theater Pit Orchestra earns Cappie and Macy nominations regularly and has won the Best Orchestra Cappie award four times in the last five years.
