Whether they're performing in a woodwind ensemble or brass quintet, the wide variety of musicians and their personal achievements all add up to a uniquely satisfying sound. Hear how each of the musicians below has benefited from a career in Army bands.
Piano
"I'm at my 22 year point in my career and this is the highest point of musicianship that I've experienced."
Clarinet
"This is a chance for me to work with some really great musicians and just do a lot of playing."
French Horn
"The Army band is a great way to provide for yourself, provide for your family, and still do what you love to do. I just think it's the best-kept secret."
Bassoon
"I was worried that the Army band would be just a bunch of marches. But it's not at all. We play such variety, so it's challenging musically."
