Department of Music Head Daniel Stevens said, 鈥淭he band program at MSU is a highlight of the student experience, led by three distinguished directors with distinct, complementary gifts that push students to become better versions of themselves. As the envy of many other major universities, MSU Bands are regularly invited to travel globally to represent some of the strongest talents on campus. The Honor Band Clinic is a must-participate event that combines the skills of guest clinicians within the setting of the rich tradition of the Famous Maroon Band.鈥澛犅犅 聽聽
