Established in 1999, Solaris bring the rich, sonorous sounds of clarinets and percussion to the musical offerings of The United States Air Force Academy Band. Supporting community relations, recruiting, troop morale, and educational outreach missions, this well-honed ensemble embraces traditional clarinet quartet literature, exciting new works adding percussion, and an eclectic collection of arrangements originating from folk and popular styles. With "clarinetistry" at its finest and percussive flair, the quintet's winning mix of inspirational, sophisticated selections and quirky, comedic musical jests is sure to satisfy a wide array of audience members, young and old. As seen and heard from their public concerts to military functions across America, Solaris exemplifies the world-class musicianship of the United States Air Force Academy Band and the outstanding professionalism of the United States Air Force.
