The California Band Directors Association is a professional organization for school band instructors throughout the State from all levels of public, private, and collegiate educational institutions.

One of our primary functions is the hosting of the California All-State Honor Bands. Once a year auditions are held and students are selected from all parts of this state to put together some of the finest high school and junior high honor bands in the nation. Conductors are chosen by our membership from around the world. We are very proud of the high caliber of musicianship that these groups have consistently exhibited for the last fifty-two years.
