Blue Stars Announce Asteria Winds

Blue Stars, Performing Arts for Youth, Inc. is excited to announce the formation of a new performance ensemble: Asteria Winds. Asteria Winds will be an All-Female Winter Winds ensemble that will perform on the WGI Winds circuit. This new organization will be lead by director Layn Pieratt and be based out of Indianapolis, Indiana.

“The idea of an all-female winds group was first discussed by our organization in the spring of 2017. What we lacked was the right leader for the project,” said Blue Stars Executive Director Brad Furlano. “But, one conversation with Layn and I knew our search was over and she would be the right person to take this project from concept to reality. She has a vision and passion for this ensemble that will be apparent to the young women that participate, teach, and volunteer in Asteria.”
