Eastman Wind Orchestra
Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre, Rochester, NY, United States
Our brave Americans on land, at sea, and in the air are the true stars of this tribute to our Armed Forces, featuring tenor Justin Carpenter. We honor the invincible spirit of our military troops with a patriotic concert featuring Dan Bukvich’s naval homage Variations on Eternal Father. Kenneth Alford’s revered march, The Vanished Army, memorializes those that have fallen in battle, and the Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy harkens of USO dance halls and the sounds of the Andrews’ Sisters. Finally, the Salt River Brass celebrates America’s heroes with an Armed Forces Salute and March King John Philip Sousa’s The Stars and Stripes Forever. Let’s cheer for the Red, White, and Brass!
