What's New This Fall!

The Band Room Renovation will be completed by July 1st! We will need volunteers to help set up and clean up the newly expanded space.

David Fry will be conducting weekly woodwind classes this fall during the Chamber Winds Block.

George McIntyre will teach weekly "Rhythm Section" classes during the Chamber Block. George is a Hanna Band Alumni who taught in the music department at the University of Southern California for eight years.

Bassist Brian Mulholland, another Hanna Band Alumni, will be composing an original composition for the Hanna Jazz Band. Brian currently on tour with trumpet legend Maynard Ferguson. Check out Brian at www.brianmulholland.com.

We are in the planning stages of setting up a project that will collect donated items to assist a school band program that was affected by the Hurricane Katrina disaster in the New Orleans area. Watch for updates on this important issue!
