SUMMARY:Salute in Song: Navy Band Great Lakes
DESCRIPTION:Salute in Song\nCelebrate the spirit of America with Salute in Song featuring the U.S. Navy Band Great Lakes. Experience an inspiring afternoon of patriotic music\, American favorites\, and timeless classics in Gorton’s John & Nancy Hughes Theater. The talented musicians of the U.S. Navy Band Great Lakes proudly honor those who serve while sharing the power of live music with the community. Whether you’re celebrating a loved one\, showing your patriotism\, or simply enjoying a great performance\, this free concert offers something for everyone. Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of music\, service\, and community.\nNavy Band Great Lakes’ Wind Ensemble is comprised of active duty musicians under the direction of Lieutenant David Harbuziuk. This ensemble upholds the legacy of its famous bandmaster\, Lieutenant Commander John Philip Sousa\, by continuing the tradition of military music throughout the Midwest. The Wind Ensemble’s repertoire consists of classic concert band literature\, patriotic music\, marches\, pop music arrangements\, and vocal features. \nAs the musical “Ambassadors to the Midwest\,” the Navy Band Great Lakes Wind Ensemble supports Navy outreach across a nine-state area\, stretching from Ohio to Kansas\, Minnesota to Missouri\, and every Midwestern state in between. Wind Ensemble concerts allow the band to tell the Navy’s story\, celebrate 250 years of service to our nation\, and reach audiences that do not have opportunities to see Sailors on a regular basis. Concerts are patriotic\, family-friendly events designed to be entertaining for young and old alike. \nProud to Serve\n“Pride in Service” has been the theme for Navy Band Great Lakes for more than a century. From 1911\, when the band first formed\, to 1917\, when Lieutenant Commander John Philip Sousa served as Bandmaster\, to today\, under the direction of Lieutenant David Harbuziuk\, our music represents the pride and professionalism that is synonymous with the United States Navy. In addition to public outreach concerts\, units from Navy Band Great Lakes also provide military support across the region\, including serving Commander\, Naval Service Training Command’s mission of transforming volunteers into twenty-first-century Sea Warriors by performing each week for recruits\, Sailors\, and their families at basic training graduations. \nNavy Band Great Lakes is grateful to maintain a robust schedule with more than 250 military support and outreach performances annually for millions of Americans across the Midwest. \nThis event is free but seats are limited- please register to reserve yours now!
