Resources for Current Directors
Camps & Workshops
The LSU Department of Bands offers several unique workshops, each geared towards improving the technique and proficiency of current band directors and their ensembles.
Conductor's Art
The Conductor's Art is a two-day conducting and teaching workshop for band directors. Participants will have the opportunity to conduct the LSU Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Winds, and Chamber Winds on selected repertoire with direct feedback and coaching from LSU faculty and special guests.
Prefest
Prefest is an opportunity for high school bands to travel to the LSU campus to perform their Concert Assessment program prior to the final assessment date. Ensembles and their directors will receive immediate feedback from the LSU Department of Bands faculty, as well as follow-up review.
