<p>LWS is a concert band, comprised of local amateur and professional musicians from the greater Beaufort County area. High school students, recommended by their teacher or band director, are also welcome. While all woodwind, brass and percussion players are welcome, there are particular needs for flute, double reeds, saxophone, and trombone.</p>

<p>LWS is planning a full season of six concerts beginning in early November with “Saluting America’s Veterans VI.” Performances are scheduled north of the Broad River in Beaufort, and in the greater Bluffton area.</p>
