All-City Senior Wind Ensemble

The Senior Wind Ensemble is made up of more than 30 members total; the youth members are mainly grade 11 and 12 from Porter Creek and FH Collins Secondary Schools and more than 50% of this Band is composed of adults from our community. All-City Senior Wind Ensemble musicians are committed to the group for the whole school year and rehearse every Tuesday night between 6:45pm to 9:15pm in either Porter Creek Secondary School Band Room (before Winter Break) or FH Collins Band Room (after Winter Break).

 
 

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.
