Alumni

This page provides information and links to some of our outstanding Alumni. As most Band Directors know, we get to work with the cream of the crop in our schools. Here are some Hellgate Band members who have gone on to make major musical contributions as performers, educators and composers. I've listed these incredible humans in order of their graduating year from Hellgate.

Allen Vizzutti
How many bands have the name of an accomplished artist as the first name on their John Philip Sousa Award plaque?
Check out some of Allen's Web Pages, Practice Suggestions and CD Tracks.

The Bendickson Brothers

Aaron, Jason, Sean and Nathan grew up across the street from their high school band director. I dreaded the day when they'd all be gone. What an awesome contribution they made to the Hellgate Band program. Now these young men are making an awesome contribution to all of us.
Each of them are incredible musicians and wonderful people. Here's the website: Beesnest
