Langley Winds honor Red Tails with local performance Published Jan. 24, 2013 916th Public Affairs Office SEYMOUR JOHNSON AIR FORCE BASE, N.C. -- The United States Air Force Heritage of America Band Langley Winds will perform on Saturday, Feb. 16th at 7pm in the Goldsboro High School Auditorium. The band will premier "Angels with Red Tails" by composer Brian Duford. The piece was written especially for the Langley Winds to honor the Tuskegee Airmen. For over 15 years the Langley Winds have been inspiring audiences and enhancing Air Force esprit-de-corps with superb artistry in a broad range of musical performances. The ensemble performs classical recitals, college master classes, school assemblies, and official military functions. In 2011 the Langley Winds participated in the Imani Winds Chamber Music Festival Fellowship Program, where they performed Paquito's d'Rivera's septet Kites. The group is dedicated to new works and arrangements. Since it expanded to a sextet in March 2010, the Langley Winds has commissioned two original compositions and four arrangements, as well as performing arrangements and transcriptions by group members. When not on stage the Langley Winds can be found sampling the fare at a neighborhood restaurant, shopping the local boutiques, or looking for the nearest running trail. The Goldsboro event is free and open to the public.
