Co-Conductors
These conductors have graciously committed to serve as a co-conductor for the Pinnacle Winds. As a co-conductor, they will select and program 30 minutes of music to be performed at one of our concerts. With their expertise, they bring national and international regard to the project of establishing an all-civilian, full-time, professional band.
