On The United States Navy Orchestra:
The United States Navy Band is the premier musical organization of the US Navy. Comprised of six main groups as well as a host of smaller ensembles, “The World’s Finest” is capable of playing any style of music in any setting. Since its inception in 1925, the Navy Band has entertained the public and supported the Navy with some of the nation’s finest musicians, giving more than 270 public concerts and 1,300 ceremonies each year. From nationwide concert tours to presidential inaugurations to memorial services at Arlington National Cemetery, the Navy Band proudly represents the men and women of the largest, most versatile and capable naval force on the planet today: the US Navy.
The Navy Band is dedicated to educating young musicians. The Music in Schools program features band members presenting clinics, masterclasses and recitals in local schools. Each spring, the Concert Band holds its annual Young Artist Solo Competition. The United States Navy Band, nationally and internationally, is synonymous with musical and military excellence. Whether it’s Carnegie Hall, the White House, or a rural civic auditorium; sharing the stage with Ernest Borgnine, Itzhak Perlman, Branford Marsalis or Vince Gill; or appearing in television programs like “Today”, “Meet the Press” and “Good Morning America” and in films like “Clear and Present Danger”, the United States Navy Band constantly reaffirms why they are “The World’s Finest” “.
