Sheltering Sky Animation Project

During our 2018-19 season, the Triangle Wind Ensemble celebrated our 20th Anniversary Season. While many groups commission compositions for such milestone anniversaries, we decided to take a different approach. We instead chose 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. The piece we chose was John Mackey's beautiful composition, Sheltering Sky. We premiered this animation at our concert on April 13, 2019 and received a wonderful reception from our audience. We hope that this gift will help engage audiences across the globe, because the animation is now available for use by concert bands and wind ensembles worldwide, who may obtain a license to screen the animation during their own performance of Sheltering Sky.

Visit our Sheltering Sky Animation page for more information.

Hendry Urbano Tuba Fundraiser

The Triangle Wind Ensemble has organized a GoFundMe page to raise funds for Hendry Urbano, a musician and tuba player. Hendry had been Principal Tuba at the National Philharmonic of Venezuela, as well as Principal at the Symphony Orchestra of the Army of Venezuela, Professor of the specialization course at the School of Musicians of the Army, and Teacher of several brass sections of various projects of the Simón Bolívar National System.

The recent political turmoil in Venezuela forced Hendry to flee for his life, and in the process his prized tuba was confiscated. Hendry is now living with family in North Carolina's Triangle region, seeking asylum, and attempting to rebuild his life. To help him achieve this goal, TWE is hoping to raise enough money to help Hendry purchase a professional quality tuba.

Any and all donations made to this GoFundMe campaign will go directly toward the purchase of Hendry's instrument. Donations may also be made by check mae out to Triangle Wind Ensemble with a memo of "Hendry's Tuba Fund", and mailed to PO Box 701, Cary, NC 27512.
