About

The School of Music & Theater’s Bands Program is a thriving community where everyone, from lifelong musicians to beginners, can experience the joy of performing together in an environment that prizes collaboration, camaraderie, artistic expression, and excellence. The program features the University Band, one of our fastest-growing ensembles open to all abilities, and the more-advanced Wind Symphony.

No matter which ensemble they join, students experience the challenge and reward of playing music together, and developing their skills, artistry, and confidence as they practice and perform.

Your gift can help deepen the musical experience for students at PSU by:

  • Helping us to bring in guest conductors and composers to work directly with students
  • Help cover students’ fees for honor ensembles and performance experiences
  • And more!

Please help us reach our goal, and donate today!
