In this session, band directors and members are invited to take an unique look at repertoire selection. By embracing the role of curator, attendees will explore the idea of the modern Concert Band as a museum—educating their audiences, band members, and communities, perpetuating the distinct Wind band medium, and elevating the programming of future performances.
