The UAF Wind Symphony is doing a CD of music for young bands written by Alaskan composers!

We have 3 tracks completed and are sending out a request for compositions by Alaskans to record and send to band teachers in Alaska.  Compositions should be either elementary, junior or senior high levels and should have an Alaskan theme of some sort.
