Welcome to the New Home of PUWE

Princeton University Wind Ensemble Fall 2009

Founded in the spring of 1997 by sophomore Rick Modica '99, the Princeton University Wind Ensemble performs both traditional and modern concert band literature.  Past programs have included works by a wide variety of composers, from Sousa to Bernstein to Grainger to Persichetti to Shostakovich to Williams.  We welcome all woodwind, brass, and percussion instrumentalists and encourage any undergraduate or graduate musicians interested in joining the ensemble to contact us.

This season, PUWE is proud to welcome lifetime musician and Philadelphia Pops trumpeter, Bob Gravener, to the conductor's podium!

This fall, the wind ensemble will rehearse on Wednesdays and Sundays from 7:00 - 9:00 PM in McAlpin Auditorium, Woolworth Center.  We are a non-audition group so anyone interested in joining is welcome to show up with their instrument!  For more information or if you have any questions, please use the "Questions?" box on the right or click "Contact Us" at the top right of this page.
