Judson University welcomes the U.S. Air Force Brass Quintet, Airlifter Brass, on Wednesday, August 28, 2024, at 7 p.m. in Herrick Chapel [1151 N. State Street, Elgin, IL 60123]. Airlifter Brass is the Brass Quintet of the United States Air Force Band of Mid-America. The quintet consists of two trumpets, French horn, trombone, and tuba – plus a percussionist to expand its versatility and showcase the outstanding musicianship of its members.
The Judson community and public are cordially invited to attend this rousing program which blends inspiration and entertainment. The thoughtfully planned repertoire has universal appeal and includes military marches, jazz standards, and patriotic favorites, with special programming for younger audiences. Whether performing for a head of state, before a capacity crowd in their 10-state touring area, or for our troops at home or abroad, Airlifter Brass reflects the heritage and pride of our great nation and the United States Air Force.
