Considered among the very finest collegiate band programs in the United States, the UNCG Bands are dedicated to the performance, study, and cultivation of wind band music of the highest quality. The UNCG Wind Ensemble’s latest recording project, The Centennial Collection, is a celebration of the UNCG School of Music’s centennial (1921–2021). With 117 tracks totaling over 11 hours of music, this new collection includes digital re-releases from the UNCG Wind Ensemble’s nineteen recording projects between 1995 and 2015 as well as several recent recording projects that were previously unavailable.
“Toe-Tappers, Marches, and More,” volume 4 of The Centennial Collection, features twelve pieces on the lighter side of band repertoire. Ranging from dance music of various styles to popular and lesser-known marches, including Sousa’s "Hands Across the Sea," this volume acknowledges the UNCG Wind Ensemble’s long-time tradition of “Tribute to John Philip Sousa” concerts.
