PREFACE1. A Brief History of Florida Bandmasters Association:During the summer of 1936, Major Ed Chenette was employed by the University of Florida toconduct a short course in band work for high school band directors and their students. As far as is known,this attempt was the first of its kind by an institution of higher learning to further the cause of band musicin the high schools of the state.Several bandmasters from around the state were asked to assist in the course. Both they and the otherparticipants were stimulated by thoughts of what could be done to improve the instrumental musicprograms in Florida. From this course came the idea of an organization.Subsequently, there was a meeting held for interested band directors which focused on the lack of aunified band group within the state. From the discussion at this meeting the Florida BandmastersAssociation was formed. Major Chenette was named chairperson pro-tem with authority to act for thegroup to contact all Florida bandmasters and attempt to form a state-wide organization. Major Chenettewas then elected President and John J. Heney was elected as Secretary.Charter members of the Florida Bandmasters Association were:Ed ChenetteWilliam HeneyBrowne’ Greaton ColeJ.B. O’NealP.J. GustatE.L.”Bud” RobertsEd HeneyV.D. SturgisJohn J. HeneyJames CrowleyThe F.B.A. sponsored a single State Festival for several years. In the late 1940’s, the Festival becameso large that the state was divided into six geographical Districts. District Festivals were devised to serveas qualifiers for bands attending the State Festival. Bands that achieved a Superior rating at the Districtwere eligible to go to the State Festival.Later the State Festival was divided into two regions comprised of the North region (Districts 4, 5,and 6), and the South region (Districts 1, 2, and 3). The state grew so large in following years that it wasdivided into 10 Districts, then to 14, then to 15 in 1982, to 17 in 1987, to 19 in 1995, and to 21 in 2005.To more accurately reflect the nature of the events, they are now called a Music Performance Assessment.In 1960, the F.B.A. instituted the Annual Marching Clinic and All-Star Marching Band on theUniversity of Florida campus. This band gave a performance each year at the North-South Florida HighSchool All-Star football game. In 1979 the All-Star Band began performing at a Tampa Bay Buccaneerspre-season game each year. Many outstanding nationally-known marching band directors have conductedthe Clinics and Bands through the years. In 1993, this group was discontinued.Robert O. Lampi served as Executive Secretary so ably and competently with superb loyalty anddedication for 36 years. The influence that Mr. Lampi exerted through the years contributed in largemeasure to the considerable success of the F.B.A. After his retirement in 1983, he continued to serve as aConsultant to the Association until his death in 1985. In 1983, F. Lewis Jones assumed the position asExecutive Director, and served in that capacity for 17 years. Great strides in organization and scope weremade under Mr. Jones’ capable leadership. In 2000, Duane L. Hendon became the Executive Director ofthe Florida Bandmasters Association until his retirement in September 2011. Mr. Hendon helped bringthe F.B.A. into the computer age with the development of the Festival Computer Program, computers forDistrict Chairmen, and the MPA on-line-program. In September 2011, Neil E. Jenkins assumed theduties as the Executive Director of the Florida Bandmasters Association.The F.B.A., through its membership, has provided exceptional musical experiences for thousands ofband students, while upgrading musical standards and making music an integral part of the schoolcurriculum, making our slogan, “A Band In Every School” a reality.Handbook 2020-2021pg. 2

As a result, the schools ofhigher education (such as Florida A & M College, Edward Waters College, Bethune-Cookman College,and Florida Memorial College) had no feeder programs for the development of bands.In 1941, Leander A. Kirksey (band and orchestra director) and J. Harold Brown (director of the musicdepartment at Florida A & M College) called a meeting of some four or five young graduates from themusic department of Florida A&M College. George Hill (employed at Crooms Academy in Sanford),Alvin Downing (employed at Gibbs High in St. Petersburg), Raymond Sheppard (employed at Booker T.Washington High in Pensacola), Michael Rodriquez (employed at Booker T. Washington Jr. High inTampa), and Guy Glover (employed at Dorsey High in Miami) met April 10-12, 1941, to organize anassociation whose chief purpose would be to provide feeders for the instrumental program at FloridaA&M and other predominately black colleges in Florida. The association was named the FloridaAssociation of Band Directors.Prior to its merger with the F.B.A. in 1966, its membership had grown to more than thirty banddirectors, who were teaching several thousand students.4.
