SOUTHEASTERN REGIONAL CONCERT FESTIVAL
Festival Overview
ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
Launched in 1992 as Bands of America’s National Concert Band Festival, Bands of America rekindled the concert band tradition in America as exemplified by the National Band Contest in the 1930s, which drew national recognition for a young director named William D. Revelli. In an ongoing partnership, Music for All and Georgia State University collaborate together to present the Southeastern Regional Concert Festival for bands. This Festival is an integral part of their ongoing work to advance student excellence and to support advocacy of music and arts education.
Being invited is the achievement! The Festival’s non-competitive atmosphere provides a place for growth, cooperative encouragement and mutual respect among music programs, students, parents, boosters, and administrators. Directors select their own programs; there is no required repertoire. There are no ratings or rankings so directors and their ensembles are free to stretch themselves, reach for new heights, and strive for innovation, growth and excellence, instead of focusing on a rating or placing.
Participating students experience an atmosphere of mutual respect while enjoying concerts from other outstanding ensembles. Ensembles that perform at the Festival are recognized as being among the finest in the Southeastern Region of the United States. Participation is a “credential” worth having. The preparation process itself can have a positive affect on your music program.
Concert Performances & Clinics
Each ensemble performs a concert before a knowledgeable audience, including the Festival evaluation panel, music educators, and fellow ensembles. Directors receive recorded and written comments from the evaluators. Directors also receive a recorded conductor view video. Following the performance, each invited ensemble receives an on-stage clinic with the Lead Festival Clinician and one other member of the evaluation panel.
Scheduled Observation
Concert observation time is scheduled and required for each ensemble, ensuring that all ensembles perform for a knowledgeable, appreciative audience who in turn enjoy outstanding performances of quality literature.
Master Classes
All students participate in instrumental master classes, led by top applied faculty and professional musicians. This opportunity provides for interaction with outstanding performers whose insight and experience exemplify musical achievement.

Each concert is followed by a 20-minute clinic on the performance stage. Because of limited setup and tear down time, risers are not permitted.
What is an Ensemble Host?
Each invited ensemble will have a Georgia State University host that will stay with the ensemble for the entirety of their performance cycle. This person will be there to answer your questions, guide you to different locations on campus, and assist in any way possible.
Is attendance required at all scheduled events and activities, including audience times?
Yes. The Festival promises to be educational and inspirational for your ensemble, and you will want to be a part of the full experience. It is imperative that your ensemble attends all scheduled events. Countless hours of preparation have gone into the schedule to ensure that each performing ensemble receives a complete and attentive audience. Ensembles that do not participate in their assigned audience time and master classes may forfeit their right to apply for this Festival in the future. Attending other ensemble performances is part of the educational aspect of the Festival. As a performing ensemble, playing to a knowledgeable and attentive audience is very rewarding.
Do we provide our own programs?
Part of what makes the Festival such an unparalleled experience is the attention to detail and quality that goes into every aspect. Georgia State University will produce a glossy, high-quality program book for the Festival that includes information on all of the participating ensembles. This program will be a lifelong keepsake and eliminates the need for ensembles to produce and provide their own printed programs for their Festival performance. Each ensemble will receive one (1) full page in the program book. Proofs will be sent for director’s approval prior to printing. Each participating student and director will receive one complimentary copy of the Festival program book.
Will we receive audio or video recordings?

What equipment is provided?
Georgia State University will provide the percussion equipment as indicated on the Supplied Equipment List. We hope to provide ALL large equipment needed for your performance to ease in logistical flow. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the performing ensemble to secure equipment beyond that supplied by Georgia State University for warm-up and performance. Due to time and space demands, performing ensembles are not allowed to use their own equipment if listed. Additionally, risers are not permitted.
Are pianos provided?
Concert grand pianos will be provided in the performance areas.

The Festival’s evaluation panel is comprised of world-class educators.
