Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. They teach you there's a boundary line to music. But, man, there's no boundary line to art." - Charlie "YardBird" Parker
Welcome to the Musselman High School Band in Inwood, West Virginia! Under the direction of Director Michael Knepper, we feature our marching band, concert band, jazz band, color guard, and indoor percussion.
The mission of our band is to promote excellence in education through an outstanding music and guard program. The focus is building and strengthening leadership, social and musical skills. As a result of our commitment, the Musselman Marching Applemen have earned five Chapter XIII Championships and one USSBA title.
Our band members are supported by the Musselman High School Band Boosters, Inc. – a non-profit volunteer organization established in 2003. The boosters believe that music education enhances a student’s learning experience and prepares the student to become a productive member of society. The boosters seek partnership with education that brings about our ultimate product: a well-educated and productive individual that will be a valued member of the community.
