CONDUCTOR
COMMISSIONED
COMPOSER
One of the most exciting programs Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma, begun over half of a century ago, is the National Intercollegiate Band (NIB). This ensemble continues to make a significant contribution to the advancement of the collegiate band. Open to all qualified musicians, whether or not they are members of the Fraternity or Sorority, the NIB brings members face-to-baton with some of the most dynamically stimulating composers and respected conductors in America. Dr. F. Lee Bowling, Kappa Kappa Psi National President (Alpha Iota) from 1941-1947, is regarded as the Founder of the National Intercollegiate Band. Conductor and Distinguished Service to Music Medal Recipient Craig Kirchhoff will be the conductor of the 2011 ensemble. Some prominent conductors of the past include Col. John R. Bourgeois, Michael Haithcock, Dr. William D. Revelli, Frederick Fennell, Richard Franco Goldman, Donald Hunsburger, John L. Whitwell, Arnold Gabriel, Ray E. Cramer, Dr. James Croft, Lt. Col. Alan Bonner, Donald Wilcox, Frank Wickes and many others.
The NIB will perform the opening concert for the 2011 National Convention of Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma to be held at the historical Arnold Hall at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
For the past fifty years, Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma have sought to add original and quality literature to the wind band repertoire through their Commissioning Project, the longest running commissioning project in wind band history. Many of these works have become a part of the basic repertoire of the wind band and have received their premier performance by the NIB. Members of the 2011-NIB will have the opportunity to introduce a new work for band by composer Adam Gorb.
If you would like to be a member of the 2011 NIB you should first check your schedule to see if you are able to be in Colorado Springs between July 17-19, 2011. Registration will be at noon on Sunday, July 17 followed by chair placement auditions. Complimentary housing will be provided on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday evenings, July 17, 18, and 19, 2011. Meals and transportation to and from Colorado Springs are not included.
You should begin now to prepare for your recorded audition. CDs are due to the National Headquarters in Stillwater, Oklahoma by, April 19, 2011 (postmarked). The selection process will be completed by mid-May and you will be notified soon thereafter.
If you have questions or need assistance in submitting your materials, please contact Dr. Bruce Moss, Kappa Kappa Psi Vice President for Professional Relations (bbmoss@bgnet.bgsu.edu), Dr. Joan deAlbuquerque, Tau Beta Sigma National Vice President for Professional Relations (jdealbuq@csulb.edu) or National Headquarters (kkytbs@kkytbs.org). Every effort will be made to provide you with an exceptionally educational and artistic experience that you will not soon forget.
