Post Season Wrap-Up

We were thrilled to have had a record crowd attend our American Celebration concert at Booth Amphitheatre this year. Sincere thanks to all who came out and helped up wrap up an amazing season!

Our Board is already busy at work planning our 2022-23 concert season, and the following dates have been confirmed for our main ticketed concerts...
  • Come Sunday — November 13, 2022 — Cary Arts Center
  • The Snowman and Other Holiday Favorites — December 11, 2022 — Cary Arts Center
  • Latin Landscapes — April 16, 2023 — Cary Arts Center
  • An American Celebration — May 28, 2023 — Booth Amphitheatre

​Producing all of these outstanding concerts in our community is a great thrill for our ensemble, but it's also something that we can't do on our own.

2022-23 Auditions

The Triangle Wind Ensemble will hold auditions for the 2022-2023 season on Tuesday, August 9. We have immediate needs for Double Reeds, Alto Sax, Harp, String Bass, and Concert Percussion (must have experience in at least two of the three disciplines: accessories, mallets, battery, and timpani). Auditions for other sections will also be held as we continue to replenish our substitute player call list. We frequently need on-call substitutes in all sections, and those subs often become full-time members. For the audition, please prepare a short solo piece or excerpt (less than 5 minutes) which demonstrates your musical talents and abilities. Feel free to play whatever you believe represents your playing most appropriately. You will also be asked to sight-read a short selection.

If you are interested in an audition, please contact our Personnel Manager for more information and to reserve an audition time.

Soaring Over Cary

TWE is proud to present our most recent virtual project, Soaring. The video shows off expansive views of Cary, NC set to beautiful music for wind band. Members recorded parts independently and the final virtual performance was assiduously assembled and professionally edited. We hope you enjoy it!

Numerous other virtual projects can be found on our YouTube Channel!

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.
