UT Wind Ensemble to perform during CBDNA/NBA Southern Division Conference
The UT Wind Ensemble, the premier wind band of the College of Music, was selected to perform during the invitational College Band Directors National Association (CBDNA) Southern Division Conference. The CBDNA is a grassroots organization that serves a variety of constituents, from the conservatory wind ensemble, to the athletic band, to the small college band, and everything in between.
Under the leadership of John Zastoupil, director of bands and associate professor, the UT Wind Ensemble has regained national recognition being accepted to perform at this conference, as well as the Tennessee Music Educators Association Conference and being able to collaborate with world-renowned composers on the commissioning and premieres of multiple works for band.
For those unable to attend in-person, a livestream will be available to watch the UT Wind Ensemble performance on Friday, March 1 at 8 p.m. EST. The performance will include:
- Gala Flagello – Bravado
- Gustav Holst – Hammersmith
- Brian Balmages – Hopscotch, for Tuba and Wind Ensemble
- Paul Dooley – Lovestruck
