Dr. Gary Garner, professor emeritus of music at West Texas A&M University, retired in 2002 after 39 years as WTAMU’s conductor of bands and orchestra. During his tenure, Garner managed to put the University’s music program on the map. He took the University’s Symphonic Band to Carnegie Hall two times and to perform at the Texas Music Educators Association annual convention a total of 10 times—more than any university band program in the state of Texas. In addition to his teaching and directing, Garner co-authored two books, recorded and arranged music and earned many honors from his peers and colleagues.

If you would like to have the amazing experience of performing in an ensemble under Dr. Garner’s direction, you can do so by attending Band Directors’ Workshop in Canyon, TX. Band Directors’ Workshop is an in-depth professional development opportunity in the summers that is FREE to attend. Dr. Garner conducts the Directors Band and all visiting directors are invited to participate. Click here for more information.
