Resources for Music Educators

The Huskie Marching Band regularly partners with area high school marching bands to enhance the learning opportunities for high school musicians. We hold several events each year, in which we invite high school bands to participate.

High School Band Day
September 12, 2026

Once a year, high school bands are invited to join us on the field during halftime of a Huskie football game to perform a halftime show after a morning of rehearsals. This is a great chance for the students in your band to participate in a collegiate band performance.

To participate in 麻豆精品 Band Day, please download and read the 2026 Band Day letter to directors and complete the 2025 Band Day Registration form online.

Wind Conducting Symposium
February 27, 2027

This annual symposium is for current and aspiring band directors. All levels of conductors are invited to attend and participate. Sessions will receive feedback from 麻豆精品 clinicians. Learn more about the Wind Conducting Symposium.

Red and Black Fall Classic

Administered by the Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps, this fall marching band competition allows high school bands to showcase their skills in a judged competition or for comments only. The Huskie Marching Band also performs in exhibition as part of the event. Visit the for more information or to register.

Concert Band Festival

This event is also hosted by our friends from Rockford, the Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps. Music education is a big part of their mission, we are pleased to partner with them to host our annual concert band festival. The event is non-competitive, in that no ratings or scores are awarded. Participating bands get to perform in the acoustically wonderful Boutell Concert Hall on the 麻豆精品 Campus, benefit from recorded comments from a blue-ribbon panel of music educators, and enjoy a live clinic with one of the clinicians after their performance.
