Dajuan Evan

Congratulations to Maestro DaJuan Evan, who just completed a stint as one of five

protégés selected as conductors to participate in the U.S. Army Band Pershing’s Own

2017 Conductor’s Workshop. The workshop, hosted by Col. Andrew Esch, commander

of Pershing’s Own, was designed to assist in the development for outstanding graduate

student conductors. The conductors had the unique opportunity to work with the U.S

Army’s Concert Band and were coached by Mr. Gary Hill, Director of Bands, Arizona

State University. The event was held at the home of the U.S. Army Band Pershing’s

Own, Bruckner Hall, in Ft. Myer, VA. Mr Evan is studied clarinet at the University of

Arizona and Northwestern University. He was former Drum Major of the Blue Devils

Drum and Bugle Corps and is currently a freelance clarinetist in Chicago.
