A new ACWE season begins TODAY! 🎶

We’re kicking off our fall season with the Christmas concert we’ve always wanted to play, an evening of holiday music that goes well beyond the usual holiday favorites. 🎄✨

Think Russian Orthodox chant, Celtic atmosphere, unexpected minor key carols, Hanukkah music, and some seriously substantial wind ensemble works. Music that sounds like the holidays, but definitely isn’t background music!

We’re excited to start rehearsing today and bring this unique program to the community very soon!

Stay tuned! ❤️

Happy National Band Director's Day! We would like to take a moment to appreciate Robert Laguna. ACWE would not be the band we are today without your hard work, and dedication for over 20 years. While you challenge us, you also bring a fun and lighter side which keeps our members smiling and laughing. Thank you so much for everything you give! 🥰

What a splendid way to remember our Spring 2026 ACWE Season! 🎶🥳

After a rewarding season of music-making, 3 concerts, and hosting a hugely successful Texas Community Music Festival celebrating 20 years of bringing musicians and community together, it was special to gather outside the rehearsal hall and celebrate everything we accomplished together.

Thank you to everyone who came out after our concerts for great company, plenty of laughs, and CAKE! We had an amazing turnout, and it was the perfect way to wrap up another memorable season. 🎂🎉
