Q: Why is there a need for an organization like Tau Beta Sigma?
A: While there are many other people that help make excellent band programs a reality, help is needed from time to time. Tau Beta Sigma was created to provide assistance and to enrich every member's experience in band. We also believe in empowering the millions of talented women in music, a field that was once dominated by men.
You can also refer to our Mission and Vision Statements for further information on what we provide as an organization.
