Under the direction of Associate Director of Bands Dr. Scott A. Jones, the OSU Symphonic Band has earned an enviable reputation through its performances for the College Band Directors National Association, Ohio Music Education Association Conferences, on tour, for the OSU Contemporary Music Festival and through its recordings of new wind literature for Ludwig Music and the Boosey and Hawkes Windependence Series.

The Symphonic Band is comprised of approximately sixty-five talented instrumentalists, most of whom are undergraduate and graduate music majors. This ensemble performs six campus concerts each year and, since 1990, has premiered eleven new works for concert band. Students in the band have had the opportunity to work with such notable conductors and composers as Frederick Fennell, Frank Ticheli, H. Robert Reynolds, Gunther Schuller, Jennifer Higdon, John P. Paynter, Steven Bryant, David Gillingham, Daniel Bukvich, Nancy Galbraith, Jonathan Newman, Col. Timothy Foley, John Mackey, Elizabeth Green, Roger Cichy, and Warren Benson.

Membership is open to all Ohio State University students and auditions are held in the beginning of Autumn and Spring semesters each academic year.
