They were under the direction of internationally recognized conductor John Locke, director of bands (ret.) and professor emeritus at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
They also performed with soloists from the New York Philharmonic
and internationally recognized composer John Mackey.
The Small College Intercollegiate Band program provides students from band programs at smaller colleges, community colleges and Historically Black Colleges and University the opportunity
to perform high-quality literature at the national conference under a renowned conductor.
