Wind Symphony History

Formed in September 1999, the Cobb Wind Symphony is comprised of adult musicians from all over the Atlanta area. The CWS was created to provide a musical outlet for musicians of Cobb County and the Atlanta area and as a means to further the development of band music.

Members benefit from the positive musical experiences brought about by music making in the spirit of camaraderie, and from the opportunity to serve the community through a life-long love of music with concerts in local schools and outdoor venues. The band rehearses twice a month on Sundays in the Lassiter High School Band Room in Marietta.

The group has grown from its initial 77 members to over 100, and includes musicians from all professions including education, medicine, law, engineering, and management and technology. Brought together by a common love of music, the members of the Cobb Wind Symphony bring a unique sound to the metro Atlanta area. The popularity and reputation have grown in the metro Atlanta area in the last decade; the wait-list for new members now numbers over 100. The membership includes several Lassiter High School Band alumni and past students of Alfred Watkins. Several charter members are also members of the Atlanta Wind Symphony and Tara Winds community bands.
