This year ISB hosts the annual Massed Band Festival event that will take place on the ISB campus on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 7th and 8th.  Up to 200 students from 10 schools will gather in the Chevron Theatre to rehearse with our guest conductor for this year’s event, Mr. Gary Gillett.  Gary is the retired director of bands from Missoula Sentinel High School in Missoula, Mt. USA and brings over 40 years of experience and knowledge as a festival adjudicator, conductor of honor bands and city municipal bands.  He is a wonderful music educator/author that will work very well with our students to provide a positive musical environment.  Schools from Northern and Southern Thailand as well as Malaysia will be joining us for this year’s festival to create a truly international event.  Don’t miss the Gala Concert when the Massed Band will be performing the best of wind band music at 2 pm in the Chevron Theatre on Saturday, the 8th of September.  Admission is free and all are invited! 

Regards,
Anthony Giles
PK-12 Arts & Activities Director
