All-City Senior Wind Ensemble

The Senior Wind Ensemble is made up of more than 30 members: mostly students in their fourth or fifth year of playing from grades 11 and 12 in Porter Creek, FHC and St. Francis of Assisi Secondary Schools and adult musicians from our community. By the end of each school year, Senior Wind Ensemble musicians have played in two concerts at the Yukon Arts Centre and have been part of our Elementary School Tours. If you are interested in joining our Senior Wind Ensemble, either as a student or adult community member, come along to our first rehearsal, information meeting and social on Tuesday 3rd September 2024, 6:45pm - 9:15pm in Porter Creek Secondary School Band Room (rehearsals after Winter Break will be at FHC Secondary School) or get in touch through our email: allcitybandwhitehorse@gmail.com

As the group is mature in years and busy with life outside the Music Room, commitment is primary (on time, knowing your music & ready to work). The Directors have made every effort to balance the instrumentation, to play music between a grade 3.5 – 5 level and to keep the musical styles varied. On top of performing at the Yukon Arts Centre in December and May, this Band also tours outside the Yukon to perform in Band Festivals.
