  • President's Welcome
    PRESIDENT’S WELCOME On behalf of the Executive Board and the Mississippi Bandmasters Association, it is my distinct pleasure to welcome you to the 76th Annual Mississippi Bandmasters Association State Band Clinic. The events and opportunities afforded to each of you over these next days promise to be beneficial and memorable both musically and personally. I encourage all participating students to maximize the learning opportunities provided by our excellent staff of clinicians. Strive to leave the event a more competent musician than when you came. The friends you make and the times you share over these 3 days will be memories that you will cherish for years to come. You don’t have to travel the world over to find outstanding musicians and educators. The staff of clinicians assembled for this clinic are all native Mississippians, having spent many years of their lives teaching and shaping lives in our home state. Many thanks to Dr. Tom Fraschillo, Mr. Steve Barnett, Mr. Vince Rosse and Mr. Sammy Barr for once again offering their knowledge and expertise to improve the lives of music students in Mississippi. Thanks to the many exhibitors and sponsors who are represented here. I encourage you, the membership of the MBA, to offer them the courtesy of your time and support as they provide valuable services to our students and programs through their participation in our clinic. To the membership of the Mississippi Bandmasters Association: Thank you for the opportunity to serve you and your students as a member of the Executive Board. My tenure on this memorable journey began much like that of many in Baptist church leadership: Miss the meeting and you get elected.
