worcester youth wind ensemble
The Worcester Youth Wind Ensemble (WYWE) is part of the WYO organization. We are excited to provide instrumental students from Worcester County and beyond the opportunity to rehearse and perform standard and contemporary literature for winds and percussion. Through an audition process, the ensemble is open to students in grades 7-12. The mission is to bring the joy of performing music to the members of the ensemble and to the community. Program consist of a wide variety of compositions that challenge the members, commemorate world and local events and help us celebrate life’s journeys.
The size of the ensemble is 40 – 50 students. WYWE students work with section coaches and mentors to further develop their technique and understanding of the literature.
Rehearsals are Tuesdays, 6pm to 8:30pm at Auburn High School.
Conductor: Lucy Colwell-Snyder

School Participation Policy:
It is expected that students who enroll in any WYO program also continue to participate in their school ensemble (band, orchestra or choir). If an ensemble is not offered at a student's school, you may also elect to take music theory, appreciation or any music course offered by the school. In the case that no musical classes are offered, OR if an unresolvable scheduling conflict prevents you from taking an ensemble music class, please let us know. WYO works in partnership with our local public schools, private schools and music teachers. We are passionately committed to supporting our local music programs and teachers.
