MINNESOTA BAND DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION

Our state and regional honor bands provide opportunities for student musicians across the state of Minnesota. Our regional honor bands are non-audition based, while our state ensembles are audition-based. This model creates opportunities for higher level performance for some students and a fun enrichment activity for others. The program's expenses include conductor fees, music fees, food, t-shirts, facility rental, section coach fees, etc. The August Teaching Symposium provides professional development, networking, and ensemble opportunities for educators in the state.
