Municipal Band Directors:
Levi Lundak (2015-Present)
Levi Lundak took over as director for the Memorial Day appearance on May 25, 2015. A former resident of Winona and current musician in the band, Lundak brings a wealth of experience to the podium. Lundak currently serves as the assistant principal of Riverside Elementary School in Rochester, Minn. Prior to this position, Lundak worked as an educator in the Rochester Public Schools as an assistant administrator at Kellogg Middle School and the director of bands at Century High School. During his eight years with the Century band program, where his responsibilities included three concert bands, a jazz band, a pep band, and a marching band, Lundak led the bands to festivals, and tours, and integrated them as an active part of the Rochester Century community. Before his time in the Rochester Public Schools, Lundak was the director of bands at Humboldt High School in St. Paul, Minn. Lundak holds a degree from Winona State University (2001) and an M.S. degree in educational leadership, also from Winona State University (2009).
Lundak was a resident of Winona from 1987 until moving to Rochester in 2004. During his time in Winona, Lundak attended the Winona Area Public Schools (Winona Senior High School) and Winona State University. He played trombone with the Winona Brass Band intermittently from 1994-2008. Lundak joined the Winona Municipal Band in 1994 and has played trombone or bass trombone in every season since joining. This year will mark his 22nd season with the Municipal Band, and his first out of the “back row.”
