WSC Wind Ensemble

The Wayne State College Wind Ensemble, formed in 1998, is the college’s premiere concert band.  Comprised of the most select wind players from the campus, the Wind Ensemble is dedicated to performing quality literature from the standard repertoire as well as exploring contemporary literature for band.  Recent projects include a commission with composer Thomas C. Duffy which was premiered in March of 2008 and an original composition by Philip Pfaltzgraff to celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of Wayne State College. 

The Wind Ensemble performs at least four campus concerts each year and for special events in the region.  Annual touring has taken this ensemble to destinations such as Chicago, Ireland, Austria and Italy. The WSC Wind Ensemble has established itself as one of the premiere instrumental groups in northeast Nebraska and is a vital part of the Wayne State community.
