What is Color Guard…? Or Winter Guard…?
It is ‘Band’! ‘Wind Ensemble’ is a fancier term, denoting the higher level of musicianship the group performs at. It’s similar to the more familiar ‘Varsity’ and ‘Junior Varsity’ situation we often see in sports. In this case, the Wind Ensemble is equal to being placed on the Varsity team. So, it’s still band. It’s just that this is the Varsity team, so the group receives a name that is more elegant to express this.
