Wind Ensemble

The Wind Ensemble is the top tier concert band at Whitney Young. Members of this ensemble apply their skills and knowledge to advanced repertoire and new works. The students work with professional musicians on a weekly basis and develop their leadership skills in small ensembles. 

A major trip is taken every other year. The Wind Ensemble has performed at the Crescent City Music Festival in New Orleans, Carnegie Hall in New York City, the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, and at the Los Angeles International Music Festival.
