Over the long history of the Penn State Blue Band, there have only been six directors. Each director has contributed to the tradition of the band in some way. May it be changing the name of the band, changing the uniforms, creating new and imaginative formations or just creating new traditions, each director has had a hand in forming the band into what it is today.

Some would think that the position of feature twirler of the Penn State Blue Band started at the same time the Majorettes started. However, the Blue Band Majorettes were founded in 1972 and the official feature twirler position did not start until 1974.

The Blue Band was founded in 1899, but it only took one year for the organization to realize a Drum Major would be needed to help lead the band.

Though the weather outside has been comfortable, the Penn State School of Music is offering many opportunities for you to come inside and enjoy live music. May it be at the Pavillion Theatre, Recital Hall or Eisenhower Auditorium, there is a little something for everyone to enjoy!
