American Clarinet Quartet

Aiming to boost morale, inspire patriotism and connect with the public, the U.S. Air Force Bands reach more than six million listeners annually through star-spangled live and televised performances. The American Clarinet Quartet, a USAF ensemble, treats Vermont music lovers to rousing — and free — concerts this week in Burlington and Vergennes. Reed instruments in hand, these four accomplished players present selections from a repertoire ranging from traditional classical compositions to patriotic marches and Broadway favorites.
