Letter from the President

Hello and welcome to the Association of Concert Bands official website.

The officers and members of ACB hope that you will find the information located here useful and informative. Our organization is the flagship for representing adult community bands in the United States and worldwide. Please take a few moments to look through our website and familiarize yourself with our organization. If you are not a member, I encourage you to consider becoming one. A member application can be found here.

The highlight of the year for the Association of Concert Bands is our annual convention. In May of this year, we met in Muskegon, Michigan for our 33rd annual convention. The annual event is an educational and enlightening experience for those interested in community bands. The ACB convention band this year was conducted by James Curnow, a renowned composer and conductor of concert bands and strong advocate for community bands and adult musicians in general. We hope that you will join our organization and take advantage of this and other benefits of your membership. Thank you for visiting the Association of Concert Bands website. We look forward to serving you and your community band.

Judy Shellenberger
President
