Guided by Longy’s experienced faculty mentors, Brass and Woodwind students build upon technical training to diversify and expand their skillsets to navigate the professional world. Students participate in solo, chamber, and orchestral performances, from classical staples to custom-commissioned contemporary music, gaining experiences that better prepare them to change the face of classical music—and change the world. Students also have the opportunity to work with partners like the Imagine Orchestra, Radius Ensemble, and the Du Bois Orchestra.

Course HIGHLIGHTS
