Andy is a testament to consistency. His ability to orchestrate in a way that is stylistically appropriate, provide a great pulse for the band, all while making the parts cool to play for the students is a super power of his!

Andy Salmon is clearly one of the finest percussion arrangers I've ever worked with in the world of pageantry in both marching band and drum corps. Andy's experience in arranging and composing for percussion ensemble, concert percussion, marching band and drum corps combined with his creativity and teaching experience will launch your percussion program at an accelerated pace. He'll expertly craft your percussion arrangements with your students skill and experience in mind for maximum performance success. I highly recommend Andy Salmon's writing for beginning, intermediate, and advanced percussion sections. Andy's "The Best".

Andy Salmon continually impresses me with his work ethic and creativity.  He demonstrates a high level of consistency in all of his diverse educational outreach projects. I find him to be an expressive musician and a flexible collaborator.

I had the pleasure of teaching with Andy for seven years and can confidently say he is the most talented and dedicated percussion directors I have worked with. His way of connecting with students is second to none, and his arrangements are incredibly tasteful, appropriate, and engaging. Highly recommend anything with Salmon’s name attached to it!
