Join the Airmen of Note, the premier jazz ensemble of the U.S. Air Force, for their distinctive mix of contemporary big band sounds and classics from the swing era.
Guest artist Gary Smulyan started his music career by learning alto saxophone during his teenage years on Long Island. Today he is critically acclaimed and recognized as a major voice on the baritone saxophone. His playing is marked by an aggressive rhythmic sense, an intelligent and creative harmonic approach and perhaps most importantly--a strong and incisive wit.

The series' alumni list is a "who's who" of jazz, ranging from such legendary performers as Dizzy Gillespie, Joe Williams, Clark Terry and Ron Carter to modern stars such as Arturo Sandoval, Eric Marienthal and Michael and Randy Brecker, among others.
