American Wind Symphony Orchestra on the River Front



For 52 years, the American Wind Symphony Orchestra has been making musical headlines along the waterways of the United States, the Caribbean and Northern Europe. Called “a remarkable cultural phenomenon” by New York Magazine’s music critic Alan Rich, the group continues to perform under the baton of founder, Maestro Robert Austin Boudreau.






Maestro Boudreau

Robert Austin Boudreau is the kind of man one is likely to meet only once in a lifetime. He is a man who makes impossible dreams come true;a man who has committed his life to the arts; a man who never loses sight of the way in which education can propel young people out of a life of poverty and into a life enriched and enhanced by music and art.Chances are he is also the only orchestra conductor in the world who also skippers a 195-foot barge!
