The Hindsley Symphonic band includes strong players who perform music for large ensembles, historic works, transcriptions, and modern pieces.

The outstanding musicians in the University of Illinois Wind Orchestra excel at a wide range of musical styles and are committed to expanding band music's reaches as they undertake works for large or small groups, traditional pieces, and new compositions.

The Fillmore Wind Band, currently artists-in-residence at Northern Kentucky University, is the premier volunteer wind band of the Greater Cincinnati area. The ensemble has been a featured performance group at the 2014 International Women's Brass Conference, the 2013 Ohio Music Educators Association Conference, and the 2015 Kentucky Music Educators Conference in Louisville.

This performance will run approximately one hour and 40 minutes, and includes a 20-minute intermission.

Guests are invited to join Krannert Center in helping children stay warm this winter. Bring new or gently used coats, mittens, gloves, hats, scarves, and ear muffs for this season's clothing drive. All collected items will go to the Champaign Unit 4 School District and Urbana School District 116. Donation boxes will be available in the lobby near Intermezzo cafe.
