Welcome to the 2007-08 academic year of the University of Colorado. In our second century of service to the University of Colorado students, alumni, and friends, the CU Band program promises a year to be remembered as one of the highlights of every member's musical career. With rehearsals in our state of the art, 4300 square foot rehearsal hall, and performances in venues throughout campus, this year will be a highlight in your music-making career.

CU Bands holds a unique position in the University and in the College of Music. Music majors comprise only a small percentage of the hundreds of students who assemble each year to form the nine bands that define the Band Department. There is truly a band that will meet every student s needs, schedule, and ability.

As a member of the University Bands, you will have the opportunity to broaden the scope of your University experience through close interaction with students and faculty who care about you as an individual. Through your participation, you will also have the opportunity to contribute to the ongoing traditions of musical excellence in the CU Bands. Additionally, you will share in the experiences and spirit that are unparalleled in any other student organization on campus.

Included in this year's performances of the "Golden Buffalo" Marching Band are home games with CSU, Florida State, Miami of Ohio, Oklahoma (Homecoming), Kansas (Family Weekend), Missouri, and Nebraska.
