    The website for the "President's Own" United States Marine Band includes many educational resources. Along with high quality recordings by a phenomenal ensemble, the site offers many other educational aspects, including three volumes of the marches of John Philip Sousa. The marches may be downloaded in PDF format and used by any ensemble. They include the scores, parts, and detailed information on each march. This is great to use in order to teach students about marches and their forms.

    Admittedly, I'm a total geek for the "old classics", but I find this website absolutely amazing! In about 3 minutes time I was able to locate about a half dozen pieces that I've been looking for at some point or another since I started teaching. I think there are resources that every band director could use here.

    Public Domain town band music library. Would be great for so many things - especially playing marches at MPA that aren't overdone.

    This is another invaluable resource of Public Domain compositions for the Band World. So many of the old marches and waltzes are out of print and difficult to come by, but this website has an extensive list of great works that are all public domain. A great resource not only for finding pieces to play, but also for doing some traditional score study.
