Featuring:
United States Air Force Stellar Brass

Described by the International Trumpet Guild as "an ensemble full of variety, panache and virtuosity," Stellar Brass combines percussion instruments with a traditional brass quintet, resulting in an original and innovative musical ensemble performing a broad range of eclectic, musical styles. They are dedicated to providing unwavering support of the training of the Air Force Academy cadets, and to the unique telling of the Air Force story nationwide.

Stellar Brass has represented the United States Air Force as musical ambassadors through internationally distributed audio and video recordings and broadcasts, and they are nationally recognized and respected as clinicians, presenting university, college, and high school master classes.

They have provided musical support at numerous civic and military ceremonies, and have spotlighted the Air Force at prestigious symposia such as the International Trumpet Guild Convention, the Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic, the Colorado Music Educators Association Clinic and Conference and at highly-coveted public performances at major concert halls throughout America.
