2015-16 Wind Symphony
West Orange Concert Bands
The cornerstone of the West Orange band program is its concert bands--the foundation upon which we build everything else, and the axis around which our program rotates. In addition to numerous Superior performances at the FBA State Concert Music Performance Assessment, the Wind Symphony performed at the 2016 Southern Division CBDNA Conference in Charleston, SC and for the 2017 FMEA President's Concert for the annual Clinic-Conference in Tampa, FL.
