WASBE 2015

We just wrapped up our 57th season with a memorable concert at the WASBE 2015 Conference in San Jose. Those of you lucky enough to be there with us in the California Theatre witnessed four thrilling performances of outstanding new works for wind symphony, topped off by Julie Giroux's modern masterpiece, Bookmarks from Japan. We were joined on stage by the amazing, exhilarating Premiere Saxophone Quartet, who brought the audience to its feet with their virtuosic ensemble playing in William Bolcom's Concerto Grosso. We'll remember this concert for a long time. 

But don't just take our word for it. Here's a very nice letter written by WASBE's president to our music and artistic director, Ed Harris:
