Our Fall season continued with a concert by The Air Force Strings, the official string ensemble of The United States Air Force. Stationed at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington, D.C., it is one of six musical ensembles that comprise The U.S. Air Force Band. Performers from the ensemble appear regularly at military and civilian ceremonial functions, education outreach events and concerts in the metropolitan Washington, D.C area. The wide-ranging flexibility of the Air Force Strings allows the ensemble to provide the highest caliber of musical support for any occasion. Their concert on October 18 will include works from the classical repertoire, as well as the Concerto for Organ, Strings and Timpani by Francis Poulenc, with Spencerville’s own Mark Willey at the De Haan Family Moller pipe organ.
