Concert Band Performing

The Concert Band draws most of its participants from the greater Champaign-Urbana area. Two formal concerts per semester are presented on campus, as well as additional performances in the area when possible.

The ensemble draws its repertoire from many styles of band literature. Every attempt is made to program literature that is challenging, yet playable. Most programs contain a good representation of older standard band works and more contemporary selections.
