The United States Navy Concert Band performs "October" by Eric Whitacre. Video is from two rehearsals in the Sail Loft, the Navy Band's historic home at the Washington Navy Yard, and a performance at the Basilique-cathédrale Notre-Dame de Québec at the 2009 Québec City International Festival of Military Bands. The band is conducted by Chief Musician Russell Gross, who recently retired after 24 years of service.

  • Of course they are Veterans...... non combat role, but still great support for the Military.

  • Omgosh, so good! I played this song back in hs last year and this is the best rendition I've heard yet.

  • Do retired members of the Navy Band hold themselves out as veterans in the same way that combat soliders do?

  • Absolutely amazing! I loved this performance
