Wind Symphony regularly features guest soloists and guest conductors. Chamber Winds is comprised of the top musicians from each section of the Wind Symphony. The repertoire for the Chamber Winds includes works written for concert band and wind ensemble, as well as standard wind literature written for smaller ensembles of all sizes. Under LaCognata’s baton, Wind Symphony and Chamber Winds have become an important addition to Wilmington’s musical landscape. Students, teachers, and anyone who enjoys music for symphonic bands will be delighted by the performances.
