NOMA WINDS

“Youth are the Winds of Change”

 

Our Mission

“We are Music Educators creating a connection with Service Learning, Teacher Preparation, and a Sustainable Musical Connection to the Community of Sonoma.”

NOMA WINDS offers Sonoma County wide high school and middle school instrumentalists an opportunity for a rich cultural and educational experience. Music students currently enrolled in a band program or those who don’t have a program at their school are welcome. All recently graduated high school wind, brass, and percussionists are also welcome. NOMA WINDS is not an Honor Band. We are a service learning, community outreach program that offers additional opportunities for instrumentalists to broaden their music education.

NOMA WIND’s participants will engage in a full Ensemble Performance experience, as well as Masterclasses and Sectional Coaching provided by the finest Sonoma State University Music Education majors and pre-professionals currently enrolled in the California Teacher Credential Program for Music Education.

REPERTOIRE will include works that are relevant, new, classic, reachable, and challenging
