The Parkview High School Wind Ensemble has been selected to perform at the 2023 Music for All National Festival, presented by Yamaha, in Indianapolis, March 31-April 2, 2023. The Wind Ensemble under the direction of Carlos Franco, was selected following a rigorous application and audition process. The Music for All National Festival will host more than 55 high school and middle school ensembles from across the country at the 30th Annual Music for All National Festival, considered the nation’s premier non-competitive festival for scholastic instrumental music ensembles. Student musicians will participate in music education workshops and perform at top venues, receiving evaluation and feedback from a panel of renowned conductors and clinicians. Ensembles include both high school and middle school concert bands, orchestras, percussion ensembles, and chamber ensembles. High school musicians can audition for Music for All’s national honor ensembles: the Honor Band of America, Honor Orchestra of America, and Jazz Band of America.

We want to extend our gratitude to our band parents, administration, and community for their continued support of a quality arts education for ALL students. The Wind Ensemble is the premiere performing ensemble within the Parkview High School Band Program.

We will have a mandatory meeting on Thursday, August 11th 2022 at 7:00pm in the Parkview Theater!
