CODA Commissions

The CODA Commission project began with it's first performance in 1994 with a work from Roland Barrett, then University of Oklahoma Professor and composer for the Pride of Oklahoma.  Since then, approximately once every two years a new piece is composed for one of our bands on a rotating basis.
