WYWE?  Why, Yes!



Auditions for 2012-2013 season will be held at Berkeley Middle School on June 12, from 5:30 until 7:30 pm.  To schedule audition times, please use "Contact Us(Under "More")" or "Schedule Your Audition(under "About Us")" page.   Looking for more members to come join the adventure!


Musicians are welcome to visit our rehearsals, which are Tuesdays at Berkeley Middle School
in Williamsburg from 6 to 7:30 pm.  We guarantee you'll want to stay!

Do you play fall or spring sports but want to join the ensemble?  Several of our members are also avid athletes.  Ask us how to do both!

Our popular blog, Music Notes, has been updated!  Read on to find rehearsal summaries, concert summaries, website information, and more- all from the eyes of a WYWE member!
 
We also have a new blog!  Read "Confessions of a Band Geek" underneath the "more"
tab and find essays, lists, and more about what is so great about being in the school band from the mind of a self-proclaimed
band geek!   

 Additional auditions will be held before and after rehearsals.  Please email us for time (use "contact us" page on the website) or call 506-1303.
