University Bands
The University of Southern Mississippi Band Program had its inception in 1920 with the founding
of the first aggregation of winds, mainly a brass ensemble for students who were training as
teachers. Its current enrollment of approximately 300 students includes members from every
possible area of study in the university. While it is primarily housed in the School of Music, the
Band Program truly is the University’s program.

There are six segments of the program that include the Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Winds,
Concert Bands, University Band, the Basketball Pep Band, and “The Pride of Mississippi”
Marching Band with an enrollment of 300 students. Each of these organizations, while having its
own distinct history, stem from the success of the Marching Band that began in the 1950s with
the hiring of Dr. Raymond Mannoni.

Each of the Band Program’s concert ensembles has its place in the education of our music
majors; however, the ensembles have also provided an outlet for students throughout the
University during both the first and second semesters. Just as the Marching Band provides a
service for football experiences, these other ensembles provide academic, recruitment, and
community services. The Wind Ensemble and the Symphonic Winds have performed for the
Mississippi Bandmasters Association state convention six times. All of the groups have provided
enhancement to community projects that include numerous appearances for various citywide
events.

As a Mississippi product, the Wind Ensemble has been featured on numerous radio broadcasts
from Public Radio Mississippi and has been the only Mississippi group that can boast of having
been aired nationally on Public Radio International’s “Performance Today.” CD’s are produced
annually to feature the bands’ musicians and are provided to recruits and Mississippi band
programs as a service.
