How to start an all-star band

I liked the way alot of the southern states started coming up with these city and area all-star bands. I really would like to see one started in South Florida but I wouldn't know how to go about that. Any suggestions? I like the idea of an all-star band because it gives us bandheads something to do during the off-seasons.

  • get with local band directors....u will def need their help, especially when it comes to the use of instruments..
  • I thought Miami had an all-star band...
  • What happened to the All-Star bands in South Florida??? Broward County?? Dade??

    What happened to this?

  • We do have an all star band in Florida. We (Broward) have done one since 07. In 09 Richard Beckford, Blanche Ely High School Director of Bands, hosted it. That was the year when we went against the Dade All Star Band. Last year, Miramar High School did it because we (Blanche Ely High) were at the St. Petersburg Battle of The Bands and we didnt get back in time to make it happen. And this year Miramar hosted it for the South Broward vs North Broward All Star Game and invited a couple other Broward schools. My band director, Mr. Beckford, told us we were gonna do the Broward vs Dade All Star Band and invite many other high schools. This will take place January 14 i believe. But i really dont know if we're hosting it because when i went to go check out Miramar's All Star Band, the band director told everybody "See you guys in January". so i assumed that they were gonna do it instead of us even though our director told us we're doing it. Well reguardless of who ever does it, it will be a really fun experience. In 09 we had more than 300 students do it. Hopefully we'll host it because it will be much more organized, and we'll enjoy ourselves more than if Miramar did it.

  • I dont think that could happen unless we were to go against another all star band.
