About ACWE
Created in 1975, the Austin Civic Wind Ensemble (ACWE) is a community ensemble formed of both amateur and professional musicians. It is the oldest civic band in Austin.
Mission Statement
The Austin Civic Wind Ensemble is a gathering of adult musicians enjoying the challenge of a high-quality repertoire. The wide range of age and skill level supports our value of inclusion and fosters our mission of using music for lifelong learning, while promoting joy in our community through live performances.
The ensemble has a diverse membership, averaging around 65 musicians, from high school students to college professors, software engineers, composers and band directors. We're a lively group whose common link is a love of music, community and performance. Many of our members have returned to playing after some years away from their instruments.
ACWE rehearses every Tuesday from 7:30 - 9:30 and holds many free concerts throughout the year.
The annual dues are $36 for adults and $24 for students and retirees. Dues go toward new music, promotion and instrument purchase/repair. All dues are tax-deductible.
If you are not a player but are looking for a great live concert experience, feel free to join us at one of our regular performances. Check out our upcoming Concerts.
