| The Muhlenberg North Band is rich in
tradition. Even though the school was only
opened in 1990 the "History and Tradition" of
Muhlenberg County Bands goes back several decades before. Many
students in the Muhlenberg North Bands are the children and
grandchildren of former band students from great Muhlenberg
County bands of the past. These include Bremen High School,
Central City High School, and Muhlenberg Central High School as
well as the southern parts of the county which included
Drakesboro, Greenville, and Hughes-Kirk high schools.
Many high school band directors,
college band directors, professors, music teachers, professional
musicians and other successful individuals are former students
of these Muhlenberg County band programs. To list all of
the accomplishments of these bands and the individual members
would be a monumental task. Maybe someday with the help of
many people there will be a web site for Muhlenberg County band
alumni. It would be an honor to be included on the list of students that
were former members of any of these bands.
From 1990 to 2007, Joe Allen was Director of Bands at Muhlenberg
North High School. Mr. Allen retired from teaching at the end of
the 2006 - 2007 school year.
Troy Stovall came to Muhlenberg North
in 1995 as Assistant Director and Muhlenberg North Middle School
Head Director. Mr. Stovall was named Director of Bands at
Muhlenberg North High School in 2007.
