A concert band, also called wind band, symphonic band, symphonic winds, wind orchestra, wind symphony, or wind ensemble, is a performing ensemble consisting of several members of the
woodwind instrument family,
brass instrument family and
percussion instrument family. Its various repertoire include original wind compositions, arranged classical items, light music, and popular tunes. Though the instrumentation is similar, it is distinguished from the
marching band in that its primary function is as a concert ensemble. The repertoire for a concert band may, however, contain
marches. A Wind Ensemble usually has one musician per part while concert band doubles parts.
