The AIR FORCE STRINGS is the official string ensemble of the United States Air Force and is one of six musical ensembles comprising The U.S. Air Force Band. The group performs various musical styles including classical, Broadway, classic rock, bluegrass and patriotic music.
A key element of its mission is to entertain audiences at high-level protocol events in a formation known as the Strolling Strings. Members of the Strings also regularly perform in educational outreach engagements, public concerts and high-level military and government events. Their musical virtuosity and sheer elegance has earned the recognition of world leaders.
In addition to its wide-ranging flexibility and reputation for excellence, this ensemble aims to break down political barriers and encourages global cultural dialogue as international musical ambassadors.
