Celebrating the art of wind music since 2003
The Alberta Winds is a collection of some of Calgary’s finest wind players working together to perform great music for wind ensemble at the highest level.
A New Season of music Approaches!
Conductor Gareth Jones and the Alberta Winds are preparing a new season of wonderful music for winds. Featuring both famed and unknown works, our 2023-2024 MUSICAL WORLDS SEASON will have something for every music lover. Featuring another large scale masterwork from Johan De Meij, and fascinating works from Eric Whitacre, Joe Hisaishi and others, these concerts will show the wide range of possibilities and tone colours possible with winds and brass.We celebrate a legacy of 20 years of performing with three evenings at Christ Church to savour and remember! Details coming soon.
WE RETURN TO THE STAGE ON OCTOBER 29TH
Evocative music of Myths and Monsters fills our first program of 2023-2024! We will explore the depths of Loch Ness and experience the power of Ragnarok through the artistry of favourite composers including Johan de Meij and Eric Whitacre.
Like all of the best things in life, it takes financial support to keep our performances going. If you want to help continue our mission of bringing the best wind music to the widest audience, you can donate to the band via our page on the secure Canada Helps platform.
