THANK YOU...for joining us today here at SumTur Amphitheater!In September, 1977, Darwyn “Tony” Snyder, right, organized a group of 70 adult musicians and the Nebraska Wind Symphony, Omaha’s Community Concert Band, was born. Tony and others had long recognized the need for a performance outlet for those who had spent years in high school and college band programs and would enjoy and support an organized group with which to play. We celebrate the vision of these founding members whose foresight resulted in establishing the Nebraska Wind Symphony!We look forward to seeing you on July 4th at 5 pm at the Capitol District in downtown Omaha! Support the All-Volunteer Nebraska Wind Symphony as we wrap up our 44th Season and keep an eye on our website and Facebook for plans for our

45th Season!
