Program:
20th Anniversary Season SponsorsTriangle Wind Ensemble members are all volunteers, but our aspirations are to present the finest professional musical experiences for our audiences. We are seeking additional Season Sponsors to help us maintain our high standards and secure our future.
TWE members' dues and contributions generate enough each year to cover the costs of renting weekly rehearsal space from Wake County Public Schools and to pay a modest stipend to our wonderful Music Director/Conductor. We receive a small annual operating grant from the Town of Cary, and we in turn pay the Town for use of the performance facilities and technical services to produce our concerts at the Cary Arts Center and Booth Amphitheatre. All other expenses must paid for by from ticket sales, grants, matching gifts from the employers of some of our members, program advertisers, and private donations. Here is where you can help! The Triangle Wind Ensemble is seeking additional Sponsors for our 20th Anniversary Season. Donations of any amount are welcome — annual donors of $10 or more are listed on each concert program. Donors of $200 or more will receive these perks:

This season, the Triangle Wind Ensemble is celebrating our 20th Anniversary Season. While many groups commission compositions for such milestone anniversaries, we decided to take a different approach. We have instead chosen to give ourselves, and the wind band community as a whole, the present of an original Fantasia-like animation specifically created to accompany an already existing piece of wind band music. We hope that this gift will help engage audiences both at its premiere at our concert on April 13, 2019, and also across the globe when we make the film available to high school, college, and other community concert bands and wind ensembles.
We have partnered with NCSU Associate Professor of Art + Design Marc Russo to develop this original 3D animation to accompany Sheltering Sky, an extraordinarily beautiful composition by the talented and widely-performed composer John Mackey. While the project is still in the development stages, sketches of the compassionate, and adorable, main character are taking form, as shown in the image to the right. To help finance this ambitious project, we are seeking sponsors who are willing to help us make this vision become reality. Sponsor names will be listed in the film's closing credits, and additional benefits for "producer" and higher levels will soon be announced, including prints of limited edition "cels" from the final animation. Sponsorship levels are shown below...
