Dr. Kristin Tjornehoj, professor of music at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls is the director of the Symphonic Wind Ensemble. Some of the finest performers on campus belong to this audition-only ensemble. The ensemble links audiences and members with composers of historically significant eras and composers of today.
The Symphonic Wind Ensemble tours annually. Last year they toured Iceland and France. They traveled to England on a concert tour in May, 2001.The band performed in Beijing, China in March of 1999. The Indianhead Arts Center hosted the ensemble in conjunction with a middle level honors band and presented an invitation concert for high school students in the area last December.
The concept of a symphonic wind ensemble in the United States is defined as having only one or two players for each required part, therefore emphasizing the importance of each individual in the ensemble. Repertoire for this ensemble incorporates the standard band literature as well as small ensemble works. At UW-River Falls, the Symphonic Wind Ensemble consists of the finest instrumental musicians on campus and represents the department at graduation, special events and in concerts.
