Welcome to the Frederick Fennell Wind Studies Program page! Here you will find important information on our conservatory’s mission, curriculum, faculty, and more. OCSA’s incredible arts conservatories provide comprehensive learning experiences that allow for unique artistic growth in a nurturing and enriching environment. Our staff and faculty work hard to create programs that exceed expectations so that each student is given the tools necessary to excel in their area of study. We hope this page gives you a glimpse into what our program has to offer!
The Frederick Fennell Wind Studies Program was created in 2003 by a generous donation from John and Sandy Segerstrom Daniels in honor of legendary wind conductor, Frederick Fennell. The program offers a focused, high-level, quality education to dedicated instrumental music students interested in pursuing advanced studies of wind instruments.
Our faculty is comprised of working professionals with a variety of backgrounds and training and the majority hold advanced degrees in their specialties.
The Wind Studies Program curriculum is made up of our Frederick Fennell Wind Ensemble, the Symphonic Band, Master Class, Chamber Music, Ensemble Sectionals, and Core Classes: Theory, Composition, and Career Explorations. Click the link below to learn more about our program's curriculum.
