The Grand Symphonic Winds rehearse every Thursday night from 7:00 to 9:00 in the Brady Educational Center [campus map] on the St. Paul Campus of the University of St. Thomas during the concert season. The University of St. Thomas Department of Music graciously allows the GSW to use its facilities and percussion equipment.

The Grand Symphonic Winds was founded in 1987 with the intention of becoming a high quality civic wind ensemble. Grand Symphonic Winds is a civic wind ensemble organized under the Minnesota Nonprofit Corporate Act (MINN. Stat. Cha. 317A), exclusively for charitable educational, religious or scientific purposes within the meaning of Section 501©(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
