Director Emeritus

The John Walter Band is honored to have had one of the most talented musicians on the East Coast as our director from September 2007 through June 2014.  Richard P. Ludwig, affectionately known as “Dutch” to his friends, has had a long and varied successful career as an educator, a band director, a professional trumpeter, a theater manager, as well as a continuing position as a Professional Music Adjudicator for the National Judges Association, a position that he held for over thirty years.  For his outstanding leadership during his tenure, band members awarded him the title of Director Emeritus and Life Member.
