As one of the Air Force's two premier jazz ensembles, the Falconaires has brought the great sounds of Big Band Jazz to national audiences for more than 50 years. This group of 18 full-time jazz musicians specializes in the best of past, present, and future by performing traditional and contemporary big band jazz. To this mix, "Falcs" members add their own compositions and fresh orchestrations. The band regularly appears at prestigious events such as the International Association of Jazz Educators' National Conference, the Music Educators National Conference's National Convention, and Musicfest Canada. One reason is the vast professionalism of the musicians. Falconaires members are some of the most sought-after clinicians in America. A driving force in the jazz world, The Air Force Academy Bands' Falconaires play a major role in cultivating our national heritage through its only indigenous musical genre, jazz.
