Andrew Allen (Front Ensemble Section Leader)

Andrew is originally from the Northern Virginia area, but is currently studying music education at Brigham Young University. Throughout high school, he had the opportunity to play with several prestigious honor groups, most notably the All-Virginia Orchestra and the McLean Youth Orchestra. At present, Andrew is a member of the BYU Philharmonic. Through four years of high school band playing in the battery section, Andrew learned to love and appreciate the marching arts. This passion led him to join the Cadets2 2013 front ensemble and has since led him to The Battalion. Andrew is an active member of the marching community, having served as arranger and instructor for several different high schools. He currently serves as the front ensemble instructor for Westlake High School.
