Mission

The Lone Star Wind Orchestra (LSWO) is an ensemble of fifty-six professional musicians providing exceptional performances while creating meaningful community outreach opportunities for the most underserved citizens across North Texas. LSWO Founders envisioned creating a world-class organization committed to deep engagement in developing the next generation of artists and arts patrons. This Life Cycle mentoring model defines our organization-it is who we are, not part of what we do. LSWO is built on three central objectives: make the best possible music, give back to the community, and reach the underserved. LSWO's tagline, Music Changing Lives encompasses the vision that music inspires, creates impact, and drives change within communities. To achieve its three objectives, LSWO institutes a three-pronged approach to impact spanning performance, education, and scholarship.
