Roland F. Seitz graduated from Dana's Musical Institute in 1898 and returned to Glen Rock to devote himself to music. He worked as a teacher, organist, band director, publisher, and composer of many outstanding marches, including Grandioso and Salutation. This building served as his home and studio from 1907 to 1944. His work and genius established a proud tradition for Glen Rock and the Seitz family, and he was regarded as an outstanding Pennsylvanian and a great American.
