The band will consist of approximately 150 of the top high school musicians in the nation. Conductor for the Honor Band will be Mark Camphouse, Professor of Music, at George Mason University. The program will also feature the All-National Jazz Band, Orchestra, and Choir. Rehearsals will be held Oct. 26-28 in Nashville, Tennessee.
