Military School Band and Choir Festival Concert The final weekend of February is always a special time for cadets enrolled in band and choir. The best musicians from military schools around the United States come together and form a ‘massed’ band for three days during the National Military School Band and Choir Festival. This year Missouri Military Academy played host to the festival, making history in more ways than one. MMA had not previously hosted the event and the whole school came together to make the experience from Friday to Sunday unforgettable. Read more about it here.
