UP Symphonic Winds

 
 
Welcome to the Symphonic Winds at the University of Pretoria.
 
About
 
Currently, both the University of Pretoria Symphony Orchestra (UPSO) and Symphonic Winds (UPSW) form entities of the Department of UP Arts and present a platform of cultural expression and identity at the University of Pretoria.  UPSO has been in existence since the inception of the Department of Music in 1961 at the University of Pretoria.  Both ensembles showcase, through their unique repertoire and diverse array of participants, the profoundly complex past and present of South Africa as well as repertoire that encapsulates all facets of music, including Western Art Music and world music. The ambience of the concert hall is an ever-changing experience for the listener. With the intention of changing emotional perceptions, both ensembles strive to entertain and stimulate the audience.
 
The Symphonic Winds at the University of Pretoria provides local and exchange students, who are experienced, with the opportunity to perform and rehearse with some of the university's top musical teachers. Click here to follow UPSW on Facebook.
