Allentown Band Personnel

(Last Updated: February 5, 2012)

We are indeed fortunate to have a very diverse and extremely dedicated group of talented musicians comprising the membership of The Allentown Band. Several have played with the band for more than 60 years! While none makes his/her livelihood solely through performance, each brings a highly professional approach and exemplary level of musicianship to every performance.  Their hard work and dedication to preserving the tradition of the great American Concert Band is greatly appreciated.
