The U.S. Air Force Strings

September 27, 2pm

Free

​​​​

The Air Force Strings, stationed at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington, D.C., is one of six musical ensembles that form the U.S. Air Force Band. The Air Force Strings consists of 17 active-duty musicians performing various musical styles, from classical symphonic selections and Broadway show tunes to classic rock, bluegrass, and patriotic compositions. The ensemble often entertains audiences at high-level military and government events in a formation known as the “Strolling Strings,” providing a multi-dimensional experience where members surround the audience performing from memory and without the aid of a conductor.



As part of the U.S. Air Force Band, the Air Force Strings’ mission is to HONOR those who have served, INSPIRE American citizens to heightened patriotism and service, and CONNECT with the global community on behalf of the U.S. Air Force and the United States.
