The Mesa Arts Center sponsors the United States Air Force (USAF) Band of the West in an evening of popular concert band repertoire. The band is comprised of highly-trained professional musicians who have dedicated themselves to serving their country through music. The USAF Band of the West travels more than 125,000 miles annually and provides over 300 performances to military and civilian audiences throughout Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and Louisiana. The organization is made up of ensembles such as the Concert Band; Ceremonial/Marching Band; Dimensions in Blue Jazz Ensemble; and two popular music groups, Warhawk and Top Flight. Satellite groups within the unit include Gateway Brass, Southwest Winds, Protocol Combos, and Lone Star Ramblers. This diversity enables the USAF Band of the West to perform practically any style of music from classical and country to marches and mambos. Although the event is free, seats are limited so patrons need to get tickets from the Mesa Arts Center Box Office at 480-644-6500 or online at www.mesaartscenter.com.
