A buoyant, joyful composition, “Ambassadors of Peace” musically portrays my career as a United States Air Force musician for (at the time of writing) nearly 14 years. Especially when stationed overseas in Japan, serving an area of the world that included half of Earth’s population, the mission of “peace through deterrence” never had more beautiful meaning than through the power of effective music shared among cultures. Traveling mostly with Pacific Brass of the USAF Band of the Pacific – Asia, this piece became a theme of the quintet starting in 2025.
